The aim of this paper is to present the concept of psychological well-being from a selective literature review. The origins and development of the concept and approaches to their assessment are examined. Psychosocial, sociodemographic and neurobiological correlates of psychological well-being are briefly described and discussed. psychological well-being is associated with positive processes related to health. It indicates the need for studies about the construct in Brazil.

Os pontos de convergência entre definições provenientes de teorias do desenvolvimento humano, psicologia humanista-existencial e saúde mental constituem suas dimensões: autoaceitação, relações positivas com outros, autonomia, domínio sobre o ambiente, propósito na vida e crescimento pessoal. O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar o conceito de bem-estar psicológico a partir de uma revisão seletiva da literatura. São examinados as origens e o desenvolvimento do conceito, bem como as abordagens na sua avaliação. Correlatos psicossociais, sociodemográficos e neurobiológicos do bem-estar psicológico são brevemente descritos e discutidos. O bem-estar psicológico está associado a processos positivos relacionados à saúde. Aponta-se a necessidade de estudos sobre o construto no Brasil.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2012-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8818Psychological Studies; Vol. 29 No. 4 (2012): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 29 Núm. 4 (2012): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 29 n. 4 (2012): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8818/6228Copyright (c) 2023 Wagner de Lara MACHADO, Denise Ruschel BANDEIRAhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMACHADO, Wagner de LaraBANDEIRA, Denise Ruschel2024-05-02T11:40:26Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/8818Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2024-05-02T11:40:26Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
