We focus on three types of activities: participating in political debates, encouraging others to vote, and motivating fellow citizens to act politically. Contrary to theoretical expectations and the empirical claims of previous studies, the results of our multilevel logistic regression analysis on World Values Survey data from 2017 and 2021 show that general unhappiness positively correlates with engagement in political interactions. Our analysis provides evidence that overall unhappy individuals are more likely to influence political information flow in their networks than those who report moderate and higher happiness levels. This finding infers that the unhappy mental state does not necessarily correlate with withdrawal from political conversations, self-isolation, and scarcity of political interaction. Conversely, unhappiness is likely to trigger a higher number of interpersonal exchanges on political matters. Suggesting that the relationship between unhappiness and participation may be more complex than previously assumed, our results contribute to related studies by demonstrating that unhappiness does not create solitary citizenry: unhappy people are among the influential citizens politically. true 2025 true true true false true false NONE 2026-01-13 false 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 3 Q1 A nemzetközi false 10018093 false false false 2026-01-25T10:23:19.620+0000 Politikatudományi Kutatóintézet (ELTE / TK) 2 9 1 2 0 true Language 10002 /api/language/10002 Angol Angol English true 2 true PersonAuthorship 128266549 /api/authorship/128266549 Farkas, Eszter ✉ [Farkas, Eszter (politikatudomány), szerző] Politikatudományi Kutatóintézet (ELTE / TK) 1 0.5 true false true Author 10062050 /api/author/10062050 Farkas Eszter (politikatudomány) Farkas Eszter DUPLUM true 10062050 true Farkas Eszter true false false AuthorshipType 1 /api/authorshiptype/1 Szerző 0 true 0 true false true PersonAuthorship 128266550 /api/authorship/128266550 Szabó, Gabriella [Szabó, Gabriella (politikatudomány), szerző] Politikatudományi Kutatóintézet (ELTE / TK) 2 0.5 false true false Author 10018093 /api/author/10018093 Szabó Gabriella (politikatudomány) Szabó Gabriella true 10018093 true Szabó Gabriella true false false AuthorshipType 1 /api/authorshiptype/1 Szerző 0 true 0 true false true PublicationIdentifier 30050973 /api/publicationidentifier/30050973 DOI: 10.1057/s41269-025-00404-7 PlainSource 6 /api/publicationsource/6 DOI PublicationSourceType 10001 /api/publicationsourcetype/10001 DOI true true true DOI DOI https://doi.org/@@@ true true 6 true IDENTICAL 10.1057/s41269-025-00404-7 https://doi.org/10.1057/s41269-025-00404-7 false true PublicationIdentifier 30587021 /api/publicationidentifier/30587021 WoS: 001597829600001 PlainSource 1 /api/publicationsource/1 WoS PublicationSourceType 10003 /api/publicationsourcetype/10003 Indexelő adatbázis false true true WoS WoS https://www.webofscience.com/wos/woscc/full-record/@@@ true true 1 true IDENTICAL 001597829600001 https://www.webofscience.com/wos/woscc/full-record/001597829600001 false true PublicationIdentifier 30050974 /api/publicationidentifier/30050974 Egyéb URL: https://link.springer.com/10.1057/s41269-025-00404-7 PlainSource 40 /api/publicationsource/40 Egyéb URL PublicationSourceType 10006 /api/publicationsourcetype/10006 Link true true true Egyéb URL Other URL @@@ true true 40 true https://link.springer.com/10.1057/s41269-025-00404-7 https://link.springer.com/10.1057/s41269-025-00404-7 false true MtaRating 518065 /api/mtarating/518065 IX.
