Abstract

Psychological health and well-being have important implications for individual and societal thriving. Research underscores the subjective nature of well-being, but how do individuals intuit this subjective sense of well-being in the moment? This pre-registered study addresses this question by examining the neural correlates of self-evaluated psychological health and their dynamic relationship with trial-level evaluations. Participants (N = 105) completed a self-evaluation task and made judgments about three facets of psychological health and positive functioning-self-oriented well-being, social well-being and ill-being. Consistent with pre-registered hypotheses, self-evaluation elicited activity in the default mode network, and there was strong spatial overlap among constructs. Trial-level analyses assessed whether and how activity in a priori regions of interest-perigenual anterior cingulate cortex (pgACC), ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) and ventral striatum-were related to subjective evaluations. These regions explained additional variance in whether participants endorsed or rejected items but were differentially related to evaluations. Stronger activity in pgACC was associated with a higher probability of endorsement across constructs, whereas stronger activity in vmPFC was associated with a higher probability of endorsing ill-being items, but a lower probability of endorsing self-oriented and social well-being items. These results add nuance to neurocognitive accounts of self-evaluation and extend our understanding of the neurobiological basis of subjective psychological health and well-being.

如果你快乐并且你知道:自我评估心理健康和幸福感的神经相关性。
心理健康和幸福感对个人和社会的繁荣具有重要意义。研究强调了幸福感的主观本质,但个人是如何在当下凭直觉感受到这种主观幸福感的?这项预先注册的研究通过检查自我评估心理健康的神经相关性及其与试验水平评估的动态关系来解决这个问题。参与者(N=105)完成了自我评估任务,并对心理健康和积极功能的自我导向幸福感、社会幸福感和疾病三个方面做出了判断。与预先注册的假设一致,自我评价在默认模式网络中引发活动,并且结构之间存在强烈的空间重叠。试验水平分析评估了先验感兴趣区域pgACC、vmPFC和VS中的活动是否以及如何与主观评估相关。这些区域解释了参与者是否认可或拒绝项目的额外差异,但与评估存在差异。pgACC中更强的活动与更高的跨结构背书概率相关,而vmPFC中更强的活性与更高背书患病项目的概率相关,但背书自我导向和社会幸福项目的概率较低。这些结果为自我评价的神经认知描述增加了细微差别,并扩展了我们对主观心理健康和幸福感的神经生物学基础的理解。
