The aim of this study was to explore and describe the psychosocial well-being experiences of a South African rural community. The study employed a qualitative explorative-descriptive research design in which participants (n = 20) were sampled through purposive sampling and participated in a world café session. Data were analyzed thematically. The findings identify three main themes with subthemes, namely contributing factors to psychosocial well-being (such as spirituality/religion and community cohesion), hindering factors to psychosocial well-being (such as crime and unemployment), and means to promote psychosocial well-being (such as provision of infrastructure). The findings provide insight into the psychosocial well-being experiences of an understudied and vulnerable South African rural community and makes recommendations for future research.

南非农村社区心理社会幸福体验的定性探索

本研究的目的是探索和描述南非农村社区的心理社会福祉经历。该研究采用了定性的探索性-描述性研究设计，其中参与者 ( n = 20) 通过有目的的抽样进行抽样，并参加了世界咖啡馆会议。数据进行了专题分析。调查结果确定了三个主要主题和副主题，即社会心理福祉的促成因素（例如灵性/宗教和社区凝聚力）、心理社会福祉的阻碍因素（例如犯罪和失业），以及促进心理社会福祉的手段——存在（例如提供基础设施）。研究结果提供了对一个未被充分研究和脆弱的南非农村社区的心理社会福祉体验的洞察，并为未来的研究提出了建议。
