Positive psychology interventions can improve mental health for chronic pain patients
Mental health among the general population and healthcare workers during the Covid-19 pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has constituted a global health crisis that has threatened the mental health of individuals worldwide. The present paper sought to systematically review and meta-analyze studies reporting the prevalence during the COVID-19 pandemic of well-being and psychological distress as defined by the dual-continua model, which includes (absence of) psychological distress and (presence of) well-being among the general population and hea…
Psychometric properties of the Spanish adaptation of the Mental Health Continuum—Short Form
The mental health continuum — short form (MHC-SF) is a measure that has been increasingly used to assess the positive mental health of the general population. Past research has revealed that the exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) technique yielded the best results for exploring the factorial structure of this measure. However, this technique has not been applied to the Spanish adaptation of the MHC-SF in adolescents. The present stud…
The links of subjective and psychological well‐being with the Dark Triad traits
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to investigate the specific links that the Dark Triad traits have with subjective and psychological well-being through a meta-analysis of the existing literature. BACKGROUND: Over the past few years, associations between the Dark Triad traits and well-being have been a stimulating but understudied topic in personality research. METHOD: Cross-sectional, correlational studies examining these relationships were se…
Differences in Subjective and Psychological Well-Being of Romanian Adolescents over a Four-Year Period and its Relationship with Free Time
The aim of this study is to explore changes in subjective well-being (life satisfaction and positive affect), as well as psychological well-being among Romanian adolescents over a 4-year period using data from the Children’s Worlds project (Waves 2 and 3). Participants were 12-year-olds ( N = 1,504 in 2015; N = 1,145 in 2019). The findings indicated a decline in positive affect and psychological prosperity with the passage of time, while life sat…
Differentiating Optimists from Pessimists in the Prediction of Emotional Intelligence, Happiness, and Life Satisfaction
What are the differences between optimists and pessimists? The aim of this study is to analyze the differences reported by optimists and pessimists in terms of three psychological variables: emotional intelligence (EI), happiness, and life satisfaction. To answer this question, we examined the extent to which a combination of different levels of optimism and pessimism can differently predict EI, happiness, and life satisfaction in two independent…
How does emotional intelligence predict happiness, optimism, and pessimism in adolescence? Investigating the relationship from the bifactor model
The architecture of psychological well‐being
The proliferation of mental health research is orienting its efforts towards the exploration of psychological well‐being. One of the main burdens is the measurement challenges reported by the widely used Psychological Well‐Being Scale (PWBS), which has often been criticized for inconsistencies between the theoretical and the empirical model. A potential alternative to understand the structure of psychological well‐being is network models, which c…
Impact of a School-Based Multicomponent Positive Psychology Intervention on Adolescents’ Time Attitudes
Time attitudes, which refer to positive and negative feelings towards the past, present, and future, are a salient phenomenon in the developmental stage of adolescence and have been related to better well-being. Positive feelings towards time can be promoted in the school setting through empirically validated positive psychology interventions. However, the extent to which these interventions impact the time attitudes of adolescents remains unknow…
Feeling positive towards time
INTRODUCTION: Time attitudes refer to the way individuals feel about their past, present, and future and have been associated with adolescent-specific developmental, social, and emotional changes. The dual-factor model of mental health proposes that optimal functioning entails high levels of emotional, social, and psychological well-being, as well as low levels of psychopathology. Since previous research has suggested that time attitudes can assi…
