Resumo

The thesis proposes that depression can be understood as a consequence of the failure to maintain subjective wellbeing. This represents a paradigm shift from the view of depression as being caused by negative affect. It suggests a new diagnostic approach that uses measures of wellbeing as indicators of depression.
