The concept of psychological well-being is introduced, and scales to measure three of its different facets are described and applied to 1655 British respondents. Results from measures of positive and negative affect are compared with North American findings, and hypotheses are broadly confirmed. Two clusters of specific anxiety items are identified, to do with financial and family anxiety and with health anxiety. The third measure (ratings of present life in general) yields a major cluster of happiness items, but suggests additional dimensions for more detailed investigation. Interrelationships between the several measures and with employment position, motivation to work, job characteristics and age are examined. The study of everyday life as 'normal psychology' is advocated.
引入了心理健康的概念,描述了用于测量其三个不同方面的量表,并将其应用于1655名英国受访者。将积极和消极情绪测量结果与北美研究结果进行了比较,假设得到了广泛证实。识别出两类特定的焦虑项目,分别与财务和家庭焦虑以及健康焦虑有关。第三个测量指标(总体当前生活评分)产生了一大类幸福项目,但也暗示了需要进一步详细调查的其他维度。研究了几种测量指标之间以及与就业状况、工作动机、工作特征和年龄之间的相互关系。提倡将日常生活作为“正常心理学”进行研究。
