The present study examined the structure of subjective well-being (SWB) using a person-centered approach, and tested whether SWB profiles differed in a number of self-reported negative life events, emotional distress, and cognitive emotion regulation strategies. The sample included a total of 945 undergraduate students from Serbia (78% female, M_age = 20.14 years). A 3-step latent profile analysis with partial conditional independence revealed four profiles, which have been tentatively labeled: low SWB (a combination of low life satisfaction, low positive affect, and high negative affect), mixed SWB (moderate to high life satisfaction, moderate to low positive affect, high negative affect), moderately low SWB (low life satisfaction, moderate to low positive affect, moderate negative affect), high SWB (high life satisfaction, high positive affect, low negative affect). A comparison of SWB profiles applied to symptoms of emotional distress, along with the number of self-reported negative life events and emotion regulation strategies, offered support to the validity of four SWB profiles. Our findings suggest that a person-centered perspective might be a valuable tool for understanding the structure of SWB.

使用潜在轮廓分析以人为中心的主观幸福感评估：与负面生活事件、痛苦和情绪调节策略的关联

本研究使用以人为中心的方法检查主观幸福感 (SWB) 的结构，并测试主观幸福感状况在许多自我报告的负面生活事件、情绪困扰和认知情绪调节策略方面是否有所不同。样本包括来自塞尔维亚的 945 名本科生（78% 为女性，M_年龄 = 20.14 岁）。具有部分条件独立性的 3 步潜在剖面分析揭示了四个剖面，暂时标记为：低 SWB（低生活满意度、低积极影响和高消极影响的组合）、混合 SWB（中到高生活满意度、中到低的正面影响，高负面影响），中等偏低的 SWB（低生活满意度，中到低积极影响，中度消极影响），高 SWB（高生活满意度，高积极影响，低消极影响）。对应用于情绪困扰症状的 SWB 配置文件的比较，以及自我报告的负面生活事件和情绪调节策略的数量，为四种 SWB 配置文件的有效性提供了支持。我们的研究结果表明，以人为中心的视角可能是理解 SWB 结构的宝贵工具。
