Abstract

This study investigates the systematic relationship between affective profiles, psychological well-being dimensions, and harmony in life. Individuals categorized as self-fulfilling reported the highest levels of psychological well-being and harmony, while those in the self-destructive group reported the lowest. Environmental mastery and self-acceptance emerged as critical predictors of harmony across all affective profiles. Data were collected online from 500 participants using validated self-report measures.
