The growing evidence for the dual continua model of psychopathology and well-being has important implications for measuring outcomes in mental health care. The aim of the current study is to validate a measure of well-being as well as the dual continua model in adults with mood, anxiety, personality, and developmental disorders.
472 adult psychiatric outpatients filled out the Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) and the Outcome Questionnaire before start of treatment.
Confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) confirmed the three-factor structure of emotional, psychological, and social well-being of the MHC-SF. The dual continua model had the best fit in the complete sample and the different diagnostic groups.
The MHC-SF is a reliable and valid instrument to measure well-being in the psychiatric population. Although relatively high correlations between psychopathology and well-being exist, the results underline the importance to measure well-being in addition to psychopathology in mental health care.
心理病理学和幸福感的双重连续模型的证据越来越多，这对心理健康护理的结果衡量具有重要意义。本研究的目的是验证幸福感的衡量标准以及情绪、焦虑、人格和发展障碍成年人中的双重连续模型。
472 名成年精神病门诊患者在开始治疗前填写了心理健康连续体-短表（MHC-SF）和结果问卷。
验证性因子分析（CFA）证实了 MHC-SF 的情感、心理和社会幸福感的三因素结构。双连续模型在完整样本和不同诊断组中具有最佳拟合度。
MHC-SF 是衡量精神病患者幸福感的可靠有效工具。尽管心理病理学和幸福感之间存在相对较高的相关性，但研究结果强调了在心理健康护理中除了测量心理病理学外，测量幸福感的重要性。
