Abstract

Many practitioners and organizations see mental health as a kind of well-being. Recently, several philosophers have criticized this view. I argue that these criticisms are mistaken; mental health is a kind of well-being, specifically psychological well-being. Recognition of this point indicates that standard approaches to mental health rest on sound philosophical foundations and also illuminates the nature of mental health itself.

心理健康就是心理健康。

许多从业者和组织将心理健康视为一种幸福。最近，一些哲学家批评了这种观点。我认为这些批评是错误的；心理健康是一种幸福，具体来说是心理健康。对这一点的认识表明，心理健康的标准方法建立在健全的哲学基础之上，也说明了心理健康本身的性质。

期刊介绍： As medical technology continues to develop, the subject of bioethics has an ever increasing practical relevance for all those working in philosophy, medicine, law, sociology, public policy, education and related fields. Bioethics provides a forum for well-argued articles on the ethical questions raised by current issues such as: international collaborative clinical research in developing countries; public health; infectious disease; AIDS; managed care; genomics and stem cell research. These questions are considered in relation to concrete ethical, legal and policy problems, or in terms of the fundamental concepts, principles and theories used in discussions of such problems. Bioethics also features regular Background Briefings on important current debates in the field. These feature articles provide excellent material for bioethics scholars, teachers and students alike.
