Involvement in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is an important psychosocial factor for the recovery of alcohol-dependent individuals. Recent studies have confirmed the beneficial role of involvement in AA for abstinence and reduction in drinking alcohol. Little is known about the mechanism underlying the relationship between involvement in AA and subjective well-being. This study aims to verify whether in a sample of Polish AA participants involvement in AA is indirectly related to subjective well-being through existential well-being consisting of hope and meaning in life. The achieved results have confirmed that involvement in AA is positively related to existential well-being, which in turn positively predicts subjective well-being including life satisfaction as well as positive and negative affect. It was confirmed that AA involvement in self-help groups indirectly via existential well-being is related to subjective well-being. Theoretical and practical implications were discussed.
参与匿名戒酒会（AA）是酒精依赖个体康复的一个重要社会心理因素。最近的研究证实了参与 AA 对戒酒和减少饮酒的有益作用。然而，对于 AA 参与与主观幸福感之间的关系的潜在机制知之甚少。本研究旨在验证在波兰 AA 参与者样本中，AA 参与是否通过存在幸福感（包括希望和生活意义）间接与主观幸福感相关。研究结果证实，AA 参与与存在幸福感呈正相关，而存在幸福感又能正向预测主观幸福感，包括生活满意度以及积极和消极情绪。AA 参与自助小组通过存在幸福感与主观幸福感间接相关。讨论了理论和实践意义。
