It starts by introducing the various conceptions of well-being, particularly in Chinese sociocultural context. The book then proceeds with the examination of the sustainability of well-being by scrutinizing the effects of sociocultural contextual and personal factors on well-being. The contextual factors are the aggregates or averages of personal factors at the contextual levels of the region and college in Mainland China, its special administrative region, and Taiwan. These factors cover personality traits, strengths, orientations, beliefs, values, and idolizing.
