Abstract

We tested the internal validity of the biopsychosocial model of subjective well-being: affect (bio), life satisfaction (psycho), and harmony in life (social). A general subjective well-being factor explained about 64% of the total variance in the model, while the three specific components together explained 15% of the total variance.
