“…Lluch-Canut's PMHQ ( 1999 ) has been used in various studies and settings: in patients with schizophrenia (Miguel, 2014 ); in chronic patients (Lluch-Canut et al, 2013 ; Puig-Llobet et al, 2020 ); in carers of patients with schizophrenia (Albacar, 2014 ), and in university students (Roldán-Merino et al, 2017 ; Sequeira et al, 2020 ). The questionnaire has also been translated into Portuguese (Sequeira et al, 2014 ) and Turkish (Teke and Baysan Arabaci, 2018 ). Although there is increasingly more research on PMH, it has been little researched in people with psychotic disorder (Miguel, 2014 ; Jeyagurunathan et al, 2017 ; Na and Lim, 2020 ), and only one study (Miguel, 2014 ) uses the PMHQ.…”

Positive mental health (PMH) and mental illness are distinct, yet interrelated, constructs. However, this relationship has yet to be adequately established. We aimed to evaluate the level of PMH and its relationship with sociodemographic and clinical determinants as well as to explore the relationship between PMH and the positive constructs of recovery, subjective wellbeing (SWB), insight and functioning in patients with psychotic disorder. A multicenter, descriptive, cross-sectional and correlational study with a sample of 347 patients with psychotic disorder was conducted. The following assessment instruments were used: Positive Mental Health Questionnaire, Maryland Assessment of Recovery in Serious Mental Illness scale, Insight Scale, Personal Wellbeing Index-Adult version (PWI-A), Overall Life Satisfaction (OLS) and Global Assessment of Functioning scale. The mean global level of PMH was 116.16 (range of 39–156, SD = 19.39). Significant differences were found in PMH in relation to sociodemographic (sex, civil status and employment situation) and clinical variables (family history of mental disorders, number of prescribed antipsychotics, treatment with anxiolytics, treatment with antidepressants and suicide attempts). PMH was significantly and positively correlated with recovery (r = 0.760), SWB (PWI-A: r = 0.728 and OLS: r = 0.602) and functioning (r = 0.243), and negatively with insight (r = −0.335). These results can lead to a major change in mental health care. If actions are taken to increase PMH, then recovery, SWB and functioning will also increase. At the same time, interventions should be carried out to boost insight, since increasing PMH could decrease insight, all resulting in better quality of life for patients with psychotic disorder.

“…Both the conceptual model and the PMH questionnaire were applied to different populations and in different health conditions: people with schizophrenia (Ruiz & Dolores, 2014), people with chronic physical health problems (Lluch-Canut et al, 2013;Puig Llobet et al, 2020), caregivers of family members with schizophrenia (Pinho et al, 2021;Riobóo, 2015), pre-hospital emergency medical services professionals (Mantas Jiménez et al, 2015), university students (Roldán-Merino et al, 2017), and university teachers (Hurtado-Pardos et al, 2017). In addition, the questionnaire was also translated into Portuguese (Sequeira et al, 2014) and in Turkey (Teke & Arabacı, 2018). This is the first study that we are aware of, which is carried out in people affected by COVID, using the MMPMH model by Lluch Canut et al (1999).…”

Background The capacity for self‐care and positive mental health (PMH) has an influence on well‐being and on one’s approach to chronic illness. Purpose The aim was to determine the level of PMH and self‐care agency as well as the relations among sociodemographic variables, PMH, and the level of self‐care among patients with chronic physical health problems. We also examined correlations between PMH and self‐care agency. Methods A descriptive, cross‐sectional correlational study was conducted with a sample of 209 patients at a primary care center. The instruments used were the Positive Mental Health Questionnaire and the Appraisal of Self‐Care Agency scale. The STROBE statement was used. Results Significant differences were found in the PMH factors in relation to sociodemographic variables and health conditions. Suffering one or more chronic diseases was associated negatively, and significantly, with the capacity for self‐care. The four most prevalent chronic health problems in the sample were hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, obesity, and diabetes mellitus. Linking Evidence to Action In people with chronic physical health problems, there is a positive relationship between PMH and self‐care capacity. An increase in the possibility of caring for oneself saw an increase in PMH; conversely, an increase in PMH brought with it an increased capacity for self‐care as well. Therefore, if actions are taken to increase PMH, the capacity for self‐care will also increase.
