Abstract: The present research used the dualistic model of passion to examine the relationship between passion, positive emotion and subjective wellbeing from athletes perspectives. Moreover, in this study we were interested in understanding the mediating role of positive emotion between athletes passion and subjective wellbeing.Results are in two aspects. First, there were positive correlation among harmonious passion, obsessive passion, positive emotion and subjective wellbeing, and a higher correlation was found between two types of passion. Second, both types of passion can positively predict positive emotion and subjective wellbeing independently; furthermore, the effects between passion and subjective wellbeing were fully mediated by positive emotion. Most findings coincide with previous researches, whereas the positive relationship between obsessive passion and positive emotion was different. Since the two types of passion are highly correlated, it is no surprise that obsessive passion may positively predict the positive emotion and subjective wellbeing. However, further testing is needed for the findings.It is concluded that two types of passion are able to help athletes experience positive emotion within a sport context, and further enhance subjective wellbeing of athletes.
