Factors contributing to psychological well-being

Abstract

The consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, the full-scale Russian invasion and the resulting increase of social, political, and economic tension have a powerful and ambiguous effect on everyone including university students, particularly in their psychological well-being. Therefore, the need for an in-depth analysis of the factors for achieving psychological well-being and the development of effective ways to increase its level is becoming more and more obvious. Interest in well-being as a fundamental human concern has continued to the present day under a variety of methodologies and paradigms. From the literature review, two general perspectives on well-being could be distinguished: hedonic and eudaimonic approaches.
