Abstract

The concept of psychological well-being symbolizes a multi-dimensional structure consisting of life attitudes. It has been designed to investigate whether one is aware of his potential, his goals, the quality of his relationships with others and what he feels about his life or not. The objective of this study is to examine the role of positive and negative affect in predicting psychological well-being of athletic students. The population included all athletic students in Amol city in the academic year of 1393-1394. 100 students were selected by multi-stage cluster random sampling, and Positive and Negative Affects Scale of Power and Psychological Well-Being Scale of Ryff was administered among the selected sample. The data were analyzed using SPSS-21 by Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis. The results showed that there is a statistically significant positive relationship between positive affect and psychological well-being (r=0.53; p<0.01) in athletic adolescence, also there is a negative relationship between negative affect and psychological well-being (r=-34; p<0.01). The results of multivariate regression analysis showed that positive and negative emotions are able to predict psychological well-being of athletic students (R2=0.358; p<0.001). Using sport can help to increase psychological well-being of students. Therefore, it is recommended that stakeholders pay more attention to physical activity of students.
