Brief Summary

The Dual Factor Model of mental health (DFM; Greensporn \& Saklofske, 2001) postulates that mental health consists of two at least partially unrelated factors, the experience or absence of psycho-pathological symptoms (i.e. depressive symptoms) and the experience or absence of positive mental health (i.e. life satisfaction, meaningfulness). Both factors contribute to an individual's well-being and mental health.The DFM has been used as a framework to describe and evaluate participants' mental health in different settings in cross-sectional and longitudinal designs mostly outside of clinical settings. Psychological Interventions, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy are widely studied concerning their reduction of psycho-pathological symptoms. However, little is known about the effect of psychological interventions on the second factor (positive mental health) of the DFM. This is especially important, because the latter has been shown to contribute significantly to subjective well-being and to reduce the risk of suicidal intentions and behavior. Primary, the authors aim to investigate the DFM in an inpatient sample over the course of time (pre-treatment, post-treatment, 6 and 12 months after discharge). Secondly, they aim to investigate the relationship between positive mental health and suicidal ideation over the course of time.
