10. Summary of the thesis results:
The research results show that feelings of happiness, narcissism, and self-esteem all exhibit a high and significant correlation between the components of perceived happiness (emotional happiness, psychological happiness, social happiness, and overall happiness).
Overall, students rated the levels of happiness, narcissism, and self-esteem as average, with the average self-esteem score (4.64) being higher than narcissism (3.76). This shows that students value personal qualities and attributes more than they prioritize selfish ego, thinking themselves superior, arrogant, etc., compared to others.
The correlation between feelings of happiness and narcissism and self-esteem shows that both narcissism and self-esteem are significant to feelings of happiness. This suggests that self-love, valuing one's own worth and qualities, and having a positive self-image are crucial factors determining an individual's subjective happiness.
The differences between male and female students are also clearly evident. Male students tend to feel happier when they can show off their individuality, superiority, and sense of power. This is different from female students, as statistics show that female students value personal qualities, character traits, and have a more positive self-image to feel happy.
Economic conditions don't necessarily equate to unhappiness, as data from our study shows that students with below-average incomes are generally happier than those with above-average incomes. In reality, most students have low incomes, primarily relying on family support and part-time work during their free time. They feel happy because their individuality, personality, and uniqueness are accepted and supported by friends and family, which contributes to their overall well-being.
11. Practical applications:
The research findings of this thesis serve as a useful reference for organizations, departments, and associations to develop appropriate solutions that will make students happier.
12. Future research directions:
In the future, our research will focus more on relational self-esteem, national self-esteem, and communal narcissism, as well as national narcissism.

10. Summary of the thesis's findings:
Results of the research show that personal well-being, narcissism and self-esteem all express a high and significant correlation of components in personal well-being (emotional well-being, psychological well-being, social well-being and general well-being).
In general, students rate the level of personal well-being, narcissism and self-esteem at average in which average point of self-esteem (4.64) is higher than average point of narcissism (3.76). Based on that, students show more respects for virtue of people than for selfishness, arrogance and entitlement.
The relationship between personal well-being, narcissism and self-esteem shows that both narcissism and self-esteem have a significant relationship with personal well-being. In conclusion, loving your-self along with appreciating values, virtues and having a positive view of your-self are the most important things that determine the subjective happiness of each individual.
The difference between male and female students is also evident. Male students tend to feel happy when they are able to show off themselves, their superiority and authority. This is different compared to female students since statistics show that female students are more likely to promote personal values, virtues and have a positive view of themselves to feel happier.
Economic status does not really show happiness of ones. Based on statistics of our topic, the majority of students with below-average income feel happier than those who have above-average income. In fact, most students have low income, they mainly receive allowances from family and have a part-time job in their free time. They are happier because their ego, personality and differences are accepted and supported by family and friends.
11. Practical applicability:
The research result of the thesis is a useful reference for organization, union to provide suitable solutions to make students feel more happier.
12. Further research directions:
In the next time, our study will focus on relational self-esteem, collective self-esteem and group narcissism, communal narcissism.
