“…Further, negative symptoms and depression predicted these aspects of well-being in the schizophrenic sample [194]. Among residents in aged care settings, psychological well-being (environmental mastery, purpose in life, autonomy) was found to be more important in understanding depression than traditional risk factors such as medical illness or disability [195]. Post-traumatic stress disorder in Pakistani earthquake survivors was linked with protective psychosocial factors [196], with findings showing that among those who met PTSD criteria, symptoms were lower if they had higher levels of purpose in life.…”

This article reviews research and interventions that have grown up around a model of psychological well-being generated more than two decades ago to address neglected aspects of positive functioning such as purposeful engagement in life, realization of personal talents and capacities, and enlightened self-knowledge. The conceptual origins of this formulation are revisited and scientific products emerging from 6 thematic areas are examined: (1) how well-being changes across adult development and later life; (2) what are the personality correlates of well-being; (3) how well-being is linked with experiences in family life; (4) how well-being relates to work and other community activities; (5) what are the connections between well-being and health, including biological risk factors, and (6) via clinical and intervention studies, how psychological well-being can be promoted for ever-greater segments of society. Together, these topics illustrate flourishing interest across diverse scientific disciplines in understanding adults as striving, meaning-making, proactive organisms who are actively negotiating the challenges of life. A take-home message is that increasing evidence supports the health protective features of psychological well-being in reducing risk for disease and promoting length of life. A recurrent and increasingly important theme is resilience - the capacity to maintain or regain well-being in the face of adversity. Implications for future research and practice are considered.

“…Pero, si bien inicialmente esta distinción acerca de las orientaciones religiosas se fundamentó en distinguir aquellos tipos de religiosidad que podían presentar una mayor tendencia al prejuicio de aquellos que no, posteriormente se produjo una expansión en cuanto a los beneficios de comprender con mayor profundidad el fenómeno de la religiosidad en relación a otras áreas de la psicología, como la salud mental (Maltby, 2002). Por ejemplo, existen trabajos que señalan cómo las orientaciones religiosas permiten favorecer la calidad de vida de pacientes terminales (Piedmont & Friedman, 2012), afrontar el estrés (Laufer & Solomon, 2011;McMahon & Biggs, 2012), la depresión (Davison, McCabe, Knight & Mellor, 2012;Houltberg, Henry, Merten & Robinson, 2011) o la ansiedad (Maltby et al, 2010).…”
