The dual-factor model of mental health emphasizes the integration of subjective well-being and psychopathology to obtain a complete conceptualization of mental health. When used in schoolwide screenings, this dual-factor approach provides a more comprehensive picture of students' mental health. In a sample of adolescents (N = 404) attending a Midwestern U.S. middle school (Grades 6–8), the current study empirically identified mental health groups through latent profile analysis (LPA) and examined how profile membership was predicted by various demographic variables, academic achievement, general grit, academic grit, and growth mindset. Three mental health profiles emerged: Complete Mental Health (above average life satisfaction and affect, below average internalizing and externalizing problems), Symptomatic but Content (average to above average life satisfaction and affect, above average internalizing and externalizing difficulties), and Troubled (below average life satisfaction and affect, above average internalizing and externalizing difficulties). These profiles partially supported the dual-factor model of mental health, although a vulnerable group was not identified. Gender, SES, racial identity, and IEP status were significant predictors of mental health profile membership. Academic achievement, general grit, academic grit, and growth mindset were also significant predictors of mental health group membership. Limitations, future directions, and implications are discussed, including how these findings inform school psychological theory and practice.

通过潜在的双因素方法分析青少年心理健康状况

心理健康双因素模型强调主观幸福感与精神病理学相结合,以获得心理健康的完整概念化。当用于全校范围的筛查时,这种双因素方法可以更全面地了解学生的心理健康状况。 在美国中西部一所中学(6-8 年级)的青少年样本(N = 404)中,当前的研究通过潜在概况分析(LPA)经验性地确定了心理健康群体,并检查了各种人口变量如何预测概况成员资格,学术成就、一般毅力、学术毅力和成长心态。出现了三种心理健康状况:完整的心理健康(高于平均水平的生活满意度和情感,低于平均水平的内化和外化问题),有症状但满足(平均到高于平均水平的生活满意度和情感,高于平均水平的内化和外化困难),和困扰(低于平均生活满意度和情感,高于平均内化和外化困难)。这些概况部分支持了心理健康的双因素模型,尽管没有确定弱势群体。性别、社会经济地位、种族认同和 IEP 状态是心理健康档案成员资格的重要预测因素。学术成就、一般毅力、学术毅力和成长心态也是心理健康团体成员的重要预测因素。讨论了局限性、未来方向和影响,包括这些发现如何为学校心理学理论和实践提供信息。
