Effect of a web-based positive psychology intervention on prenatal well-being: A case series study

摘要

Background: Detrimental effects of women's negative feelings during pregnancy have been extensively examined and documented, but research on the influence of positive feelings and protective factors on their prenatal mental health is scarce. Evidence from the positive psychology field has shown that practicing some brief positive exercises, called positive psychology interventions, can maximize wellbeing by increasing positive emotions, engagement, and meaning.
