Popis: The article examines the socio-economic, socio-cultural and epistemological reasons of actualization of research interest to the humanitarian aspects of health and well-being. It analyzes the main theoretical models of psychological health arising from the recognition of the determining influence of social factors and the importance of cultural determinants in the analysis of the humanitarian aspects of health; particular attention is paid to the modern status of a special area of knowledge of health psychology. There are three main levels of factors affecting psychological health and subjective well-being: 1) macro, which includes a number of objective and subjective indicators (the level of economic development of the region, and subjective economic well-being of the population; the level of social protection of the population and its subjective evaluation, etc.); 2) social-psychological, among which the structural and dynamic features of social networks, the stylistic characteristics of the communication opportunities of social support; 3) the personality, including resilience, the nature of self, dominant emotional state, the characteristics of personal and social identity. It is emphasized that although among the criteria of psychological health of particular importance is the degree of integration of the personality and its focus on self-development, the nature of psychological health is closely linked to socio-psychological aspects of human existence: a harmonious integration in the society, successful socialization, the presence of strong social ties and social support are integral to psychological health.
