Psychological wellbeing (PWB) is known to be critical for promoting mental health. However, to date, the exact features resulting in PWB have not been identified. Therefore, the effects of factors promoting PWB suggested in previous studies were compared. Workers (n=447) that were covered different types of work such as medical, industrial, and educational staff, responded to the Psychological Well-Being Scale, the Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire-Revised, Positive and Negative Affect Schedule, Stress Coping Inventory, and the Job Content Questionnaire. Result of the multiple regression analyses and path analyses indicated that positive and negative automatic thoughts that comprised positive thinking and negative thoughts about the self, as well as the decision latitude had significant effects on PWB. Therefore, it is concluded that automatic thoughts and decision latitude are critical for promoting PWB.
