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健康 项目概要/摘要 鉴于全球压力不断上升，大流行、孤独和心理健康加剧了这种压力 问题不断增加，加重了慢性病的负担。大多数以健康为导向的研究都需要 减少危害的方法，识别和减轻问题以减轻疾病负担。最近的研究有 表明更加关注情绪健康可能为减少情绪健康提供另一个关键策略 疾病负担并导致人口健康的显着改善。推进科学并提供 实践的最有力的证据基础，更大程度地发展研究情绪健康的研究能力 存在（EWB）是需要的。情绪健康（EWB）的核心要素——享乐性、评价性和幸福性—— 与更好的健康寿命相关，并被假设发挥因果作用。我们的总体目标是创造 一个由从事机械干预相关的科学家组成的有凝聚力的跨学科网络 EWB 研究，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 科学领域的领先机构，包括 UCSF（Epel、Mendes）、李锦裳健康中心和 哈佛（库布赞斯基）和加州大学伯克利分校（肯特纳、西蒙-托马斯）及其跨学科的幸福 Good Science Center (GGSC)，其数字平台每年覆盖数百万用户（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 培育一个专注于测量和干预的科学界。 我们的目标包括目标 1) 促进全国队列研究中 EWB 和健康跨度的分析 通过协调现有的健康与退休研究系列，在 30 个国家/地区开展 EWB 的衡量标准（例如，生活满意度、幸福感、积极情感）和支持因果关系 推理分析；目标 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 包括积极的生理学特征，利用现有技术和经过验证的生物传感器来测量 自主神经系统和睡眠；目标 3) 创建和传播有价值的研究资源 用于 EWB 和身体健康的研究，包括 a) 制作各国统一的 EWB 数据 公开提供并提供试点资金和高级科学家专业知识，以支持研究人员使用时间 数据； b) 创建 EWB 措施和方法的专家共识工具箱； c) 开发一个 经经验验证的 EWB 干预措施库（基于 UCB 的存储库）。 4年后，EWB 网络将建立强大的研究能力，并通过创新统一推动该领域向前发展 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输入的重要发现。
