Abstract
Using two-wave data, this study clarifies the role of situational affect in determining college students’ satisfaction with their choice of major by measuring both emotion frequency and intensity. Positive emotion frequency and negative emotion intensity were significant predictors, suggesting that situational affect’s role in major satisfaction is nuanced.
