心理健康和心理困扰通常被认为是不同的，如果不是正交的心理健康方面。根据本文的分析，我们认为这种区分是误导性的。在一般人群调查中，有四个维度似乎值得测量：生活满意度、积极情感、焦虑和抑郁。此外，幸福感的一个维度，生活满意度，与痛苦维度，抑郁症有很强的相关性。一个人不太可能既对生活满意又沮丧，但可能既满意又焦虑。本文是基于收敛效度（探索性和验证性因素分析）和发散效度评估的一系列广泛使用的措施，其中包括在维多利亚州的生活质量小组调查，1987年。
Psychological well-being and psychological distress are often regarded as distinct, if not orthogonal dimensions of mental health. Based on analyses in this paper, we consider the distinction misleading. Four dimensions seem worth measuring in general population surveys: life satisfaction, positive affect, anxiety and depression. Furthermore, one of the well-being dimensions, fife satisfaction, is quite strongly correlated with a distress dimension, depression. A person is unlikely to be both satisfied with life and depressed, but may be satisfied and anxious. The paper is based on convergent validity (exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses) and divergent validity assessments of a range of widely used measures, which were included in the Victorian Quality of Life Panel Survey, 1987.
