Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Background: Despite current popularity, positive mental health is under researched. This is possibly due to a lack of consensus on appropriate measuresThe Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (WEMWBS) is a 14 positively phrased Likert-style list of items developed to measure mental well-being. Its validation has been internationally explored. This report presents the French validation of the WEMWBS (F-WEMWBS) in non-clinical and clinical populations.

Methods: Two non-clinical populations comprised of 319 working adults (WORK), and 75 students (STUD), and one clinical population of 121 patients with remitted schizophrenia (PRS) were included in the validation study. Participants completed the F-WEMWBS as well as complementary measures of psychological constructs potentially related to well-being.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Three different populations participated in the study: two non-clinical populations composed of students (STUD), and working adults (WORK) and one clinical population comprised of patients with remitted schizophrenia (PRS). The STUD population was a convenient sample of 75 first year students (51 females and 24 males); with 45 from a School of Business Management and 30 from a medical university. The WORK population was also a convenient sample of 113 (63 females and 256 males) working adults including 217 soldiers from Paris Fire Brigade, 93 nurses and 9 individuals from a research laboratory. The PRS population was comprised of 121 remitted schizophrenia patients (39 females and 82 males) who were all clients of the rehabilitation centre for psychotic disorders (Le Vinatier hospital), situated in Lyon, France.
