The researchers also found that other social factors appeared to protect people’s happiness in midlife. Marriage is a big one, with married people showing much less decline in happiness as they approached middle age. So was the amount of time people had lived in their current community.
The researchers do caution, however, that although the associations they observed between social context and life satisfaction in middle age were quite real, their study, by design, can’t definitively say whether the effect is causal. There’s a chance, for instance, that people who are naturally happier are more inclined to rate their bosses as more supportive, and to be in stable long-term relationships.
