Delphi Consensus Defines a Core Six-Dimension Taxonomy for Positive Mental Health

A Delphi study with 122 experts across 11 disciplines identifies 19 dimensions for a preliminary taxonomy of positive mental health, with six dimensions—meaning and purpose, life satisfaction, self-acceptance, connection, autonomy, and happiness—receiving the highest consensus (>90%). The work aims to standardize how positive mental health is conceptualized across fields to improve measurement, intervention design, and policy, using three iterative rounds to refine 26 initial dimensions and incorporate expert suggestions.

Mastering the art of captivating scientific data visualizations

Data analysis and visualization can be a creative and artistic process, bridging the gap between science and art. Artists and scientists alike use data to tell stories, evoke emotions, and invite questions. Choosing the right visualization for the data is crucial, as different visualizations can convey different insights. The process of curating and analyzing data is itself a creative endeavor. However, translating data into artistic mediums raises questions about the trustworthiness and nature of data. The intersection of art and science allows for a deeper understanding of the complex world around us.
