Students' mental health have a greatest impact on wellbeing and academic performance, also is often affected adaptation to the university life. This study examines the proportion of students with a positive and negative affect balance, and the relationship between affective wellbeing and academic self-efficacy and performance. It also analyzes how psychological wellbeing and academic self-efficacy predict affective wellbeing and academic performance. In a sample of 200 undergraduate students (M = 19.07 years), it was found that positive affect decreased and negative affect increased during the second academic year. The majority had a positive affect balance (AB). Psychological wellbeing predicts positive emotions and its achievement dimension predicts academic performance. 53% of participating students maintained a positive AB, 14% maintained a negative AB and 21% went from a negative to a positive AB one. The change from a positive to a negative AB (10%) is associated with an increase in psychological wellbeing, suggesting a process of post-stress growth in relation to the challenges of university life.
学生的心理健康对幸福感和学业成绩有重大影响，也常常受到适应大学生活的影响。本研究考察了积极和消极情感平衡的学生比例，以及情感幸福感与学业自我效能感和表现之间的关系。它还分析了心理健康和学业自我效能感如何预测情感幸福感和学业成绩。在 200 名本科生样本中（M=19.07 岁），发现第二年的积极情绪减少，消极情绪增加。大多数学生都有积极的情感平衡（AB）。心理健康预测积极情绪，其成就维度预测学业成绩。53%的参与学生保持了积极的 AB，14%保持了消极的 AB，21%从消极的 AB 转变为积极的 AB。从积极的 AB 转变为消极的 AB（10%）与心理健康的增加有关，这表明与大学生活的挑战有关的压力后成长过程。
