	abstract = {Purpose: The study compared the effects of biomedical, psychological, and social factors on
eudaimonic, evaluative, and affective well-being (SWB). Little research demonstrating the
relative effects of these biopsychosocial factors on SWB has been conducted.
Method: A subsample (n=1764) of the Everyday Life and Well-being Survey of the Health and
Retirement Study (HRS) was utilized. Respondents had to be >=50 years old. Data were analyzed
with the general linear model in the SPSS complex sampling design module.
Results: The sample was mostly female (61.60\%), White (89.40\%), Hispanic (6.60\%), averaged
60.23 years of age, 12.72(0.11) years of education, and 2.89/0.03 chronic diseases. The mean
scores of perceived aging satisfaction, perceived mastery, loneliness, and years of education
were associated with eudaimonic well-being. Age, chronic disease, perceived age, perceived
aging satisfaction, loneliness, financial security, neighborhood social cohesion, and positive
support were associated with evaluative well-being. Depression, perceived aging satisfaction,
perceived mastery, loneliness, and neighborhood social cohesion were associated with positive
affective well-being.},
