  • The affective part of psychological well-being is an evaluation influenced by emotions and feelings (Diener, 1997).

    “The affective part is an evaluation influenced by emotions and feelings, for example, the frequency by which individuals experience pleasant or unpleasant moods in reaction to life circumstances (Diener, 1997).”
  • Diener (1997) inferred that the cognitive component of psychological well-being is an information-based appraisal of ones life satisfaction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
