Advancing Psychosocial & Biobehavioral Approaches to Improving Emotional Well-Being PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Given rising levels of global stress, exacerbated by the pandemic, loneliness and mental health problems are on the rise, adding to the burden of chronic diseases. Most health-oriented research takes a harm-reduction approach, identifying and mitigating problems to reduce disease burden. Recent research has demonstrated that a greater focus on emotional well-being may provide another critical strategy for reducing disease burden and lead to significant improvements in population health. To advance the science and provide the strongest evidence base for practice, greater development of research capacity for studying emotional well- being (EWB) is needed. Core elements of emotional well-being (EWB)--hedonic, evaluative, and eudaimonic-- are associated with better healthspan and are hypothesized to play a causal role. Our overall aim is to create a cohesive transdisciplinary network of scientists engaged in mechanistic intervention-relevant research on EWB, with a specific focus on eudaimonia, and pathways by which EWB leads to healthy longevity, including social connection, positive physiology, and healthy behaviors. We bring together three leading institutions in EWB science, uniting UCSF (Epel, Mendes), Lee Kum Sheung Center for Health and Happiness at Harvard (Kubzansky) and UC Berkeley (Keltner, Simon-Thomas) and its interdisciplinary Greater Good Science Center (GGSC), whose digital platforms reach several millions annually (researchers, educators, health professionals). We will catalyze innovation and progress of mechanistic research on EWB by fostering a scientific community focused on measurement and intervention. Our aims include Aim 1) Facilitating analysis of EWB and healthspan across national cohort studies in 30 nations that are part of the Health and Retirement Study Family of Studies by harmonizing existing measures of EWB (e.g., life satisfaction, eudaimonic well-being, positive affect) and supporting causal- inference analyses; Aim 2) Promoting early stage intervention research by developing sensitive EWB measures, and interventions that can increase EWB and drive change in relevant biobehavioral mediators including positive physiology profiles, leveraging existing technology and validated biosensors that measure autonomic nervous system and sleep; and Aim 3) Creating and disseminating valuable research resources for studies of EWB and physical health, including a) making the harmonized EWB data across countries publicly available and providing pilot funding and senior scientist expertise to support investigator time to use the data; b) creating an expert consensus toolbox of EWB measures and methodology; and c) developing a library of empirically-validated EWB interventions (building on UCB's repository). After 4 years, the EWB network will have built strong research capacity and catapulted the field forward with innovative unifying models, consensus measurement and intervention resources, and mechanistic pilot data. Transdisciplinary collaborations will continue to generate key findings well beyond the network's input.

推进心理社会和生物行为方法，以改善情绪福祉 项目总结/摘要 鉴于全球压力水平不断上升，并因大流行、孤独和心理健康而加剧， 问题在增加，增加了慢性病的负担。大多数以健康为导向的研究需要一个 减少危害的方法，确定和减轻问题，以减少疾病负担。最近的研究 表明，更多地关注情绪健康可能会提供另一个关键的战略， 疾病负担，并导致人口健康的显著改善。为了推动科学发展， 实践的最强有力的证据基础，更好地研究情绪的研究能力的发展- 需要（EWB）。情感幸福的核心要素--享乐、评价和自我实现-- 与更好的健康寿命相关，并被假设为起因果作用。我们的总体目标是创造 一个有凝聚力的跨学科网络的科学家从事机械干预相关 研究EWB，特别关注eudaimonia，以及EWB导致健康的途径 长寿，包括社会联系，积极的生理和健康的行为。我们汇集了三个 EWB科学的领先机构，联合UCSF（Epel，门德斯），Lee Kum Sheung健康中心和 幸福在哈佛（库布赞斯基）和加州大学伯克利分校（凯尔特纳，西蒙-托马斯）及其跨学科的大 良好的科学中心（GGSC），其数字平台每年达到数百万（研究人员， 教育工作者、卫生专业人员）。我们将通过以下方式促进EWB机理研究的创新和进步： 培养一个以测量和干预为重点的科学界。 我们的目标包括目标1）促进EWB和健康跨度在国家队列研究中的分析 在30个国家，是健康和退休研究家庭的一部分，通过协调现有的 EWB的测量（例如，生活满意度、幸福感、积极影响）和支持因果关系- 目的2）通过开发敏感的EWB促进早期干预研究 可以增加EWB并推动相关生物行为介质变化的措施和干预措施 包括积极的生理特征，利用现有技术和经过验证的生物传感器， 自主神经系统和睡眠;以及目标3）创建和传播有价值的研究资源 用于EWB和身体健康研究，包括a）使各国的EWB数据协调一致 公开提供，并提供试点资金和资深科学家的专业知识，以支持研究者的时间使用 数据; B）创建EWB措施和方法的专家共识工具箱;以及c）开发 实验室验证的EWB干预措施库（建立在UCB的存储库上）。4年后，EWB 该网络将建立强大的研究能力，并以创新的统一方式推动该领域的发展 模型，共识测量和干预资源，以及机械试点数据。跨学科 合作将继续产生远远超出网络投入的重要发现。
