Özet
Psychological well-being infuences all the facets of adolescent success. This study examined the psychometric prop erties of PERMA, a subjective well-being measure consisting of fve domains: positive emotions, engagement, relation ships, meaning, and accomplishment. The sample size consisted of 502 high school students from public schools in Qatar. Contrary to expectations, the fve-factor structure for PERMA did not ft our data well; however, after refning the model by the errors of the covariances between items, the one-factor model was found to be applicable. Mul tivariate analysis revealed that socioeconomic status (SES) and level of academic performance were independently and positively associated with overall well-being scores, whereas internalizing and externalizing behaviors were negatively associated. Notably, no signifcant efects of gender or age on well-being were observed. These fndings suggest that interventions specifc to socioeconomic status, academic excellence, and internalizing and externalizing behaviors in the school setting can produce more efective outcomes concerning student well-being.
