Gratitude Improves Quality of Life - NYTimes.com: "Gratitude is also a nice feature of human nature. In the Journal of Happiness Studies a research team led by Jeffrey Froh studied surveys of high school students that were designed to measure levels of materialism, gratitude, envy, depression, social integration and self-absorption. They found that high gratitude scores powerfully predict higher grades, better social integration and lower envy and depression levels. Students with more materialistic attitudes earned lower grades."
