Belongingness is a human drive to form positive and lasting interpersonal relationships and ultimately to be a part of a social group environment (Baumeister & Leary, 1995). As humans, we are all a part of social groups; whether they are friendship groups, sports teams, work groups or families, these social bodies form an integral part of our lives. Social interaction is a key physical component of basic human needs just as food, water and shelter are. A sense of belongingness falls under the most basic yet crucial aspects of human needs; it is almost impossible to live a healthy life without some form social connection with other people (Baumeister, 2005). It has also been defined in a number of ways. For example, Deci and Ryan suggested that the need for relatedness 'encompasses a person's striving to relate to and care for others, to feel that those others are relating authentically to one's self, and to feel a satisfying and coherent involvement with the social world more generally'. Baumeister and Leary (1995) suggested that the need to belong is characterised by a need for regular contact and the perception that the interpersonal relationship has stability, affective concern, and is ongoing. In their seminal article on the importance of sense of belonging to wellbeing, they proposed the 'belongingness hypothesis', suggesting that "human beings have a pervasive drive to form and maintain at least a minimum quantity of lasting, positive, and significant interpersonal relationships". Failure to have belongingness needs met may lead to feelings of social isolation, alienation, and loneliness. Thus, a sense of belonging can be seen as a precursor to social connectedness. People experience a range of both positive and negative emotions in their need to belong. Empirical evidence suggests that when individuals are accepted, welcomed, or included it leads those individuals to feel positive emotions such as happiness, elation, calm, and 16 satisfaction. However, when individuals are rejected or excluded, they feel strong negative emotions such as anxiety, jealousy, depression, and grief. Plenty of results set the important role of belongingness as a facilitator. Belongingness correlates with many other factors and make them powerful. A sense of belongingness can enhance academic achievement as found by Anderman , Freeman (2004) . Wentzel, Caldwell (1997) and Hymel (1996) with many other psychologists, in their studies. A sense of belongingness positively correlates with high level of self-esteem. Of course when a person notices that he is being liked and cared by the group which he values; helps his self-esteem enhancement. Emotional and physical well-being is also positively associated with a sense of belongingness. Belongingness can provide people with considerable social support, which directly promotes happiness and health. Indeed, hundreds of studies have documented that social support has beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system, the endocrine system, the immune system, and even on gene expression (Cacioppo & Patrick, 2008; Uchino et al., 1996). A feeling of belonging to a country, region, and local community can influence people's sense of identity and the extent to which they participate in society. Generally, a strong sense of belonging is positively associated with better self-reported physical and mental health. A strong sense of belonging also contributes to individual and community well-being (Cherry, K. 2013). The need to belong has its effects in the workplace also. Employees want to fit in at work as much as students want to fit in at school. They seek the approval of their leaders, bosses, and other employees in order to be accepted. Researchers found that belongingness increased cooperative behaviour among employees. Body & mind, Alle body & mind, Engelse Boeken > Body & mind > Alle body & mind.
