Abstract
Well-being is a complex construct that concerns optimal experience and functioning. The concept of well-being refers to optimal psychological functioning and experience. Current research on well-being has been derived from two general perspectives: the hedonic approach, which focuses on happiness and defines well-being in terms of pleasure attainment and pain avoidance; and the eudaimonic approach, which focuses on meaning and self-realization and defines well-being in terms of the degree to which a person is fully functioning. The hedonic viewpoint focuses on subjective well-being, which is frequently equated with happiness and is formally defined as more positive affect, less negative affect, and greater life satisfaction. In contrast, the eudaimonic viewpoint focuses on psychological well-being, which is defined more broadly in terms of the fully functioning person and has been operationalized either as a set of six dimensions, as happiness plus meaningfulness, or as a set of wellness variables such as self-actualization and vitality. The results of empirical research of psychological well-being of ATO participants of different age are analyzed. It was established that participants of ATO aged 20-30 years are characterized by a high level of psychological well-being, in particular, such components as personal growth and positive relationships; age group of ATO participants from 31 to 45 years - its components as positive relations, autonomy and management of others; the lowest rates for psychological well-being are in the age group older than 45, which is largely due to problems with somatic health and lack of social support.
