Abstract

This thesis consists of Chapter One which is a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials investigating the efficacy of online positive psychology interventions (OPPIs) with no human support, in improving subjective well-being in individuals across the lifespan. Findings show a small positive treatment effect (d=0.21) for OPPIs in improving subjective well-being. Chapter Two is an empirical study of the mental health of children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). Results show a significant positive correlation between self-report and teacher reported scores of mental health and behaviour, but no relationship between emotional literacy and mental health. Chapter Three includes two press releases to disseminate the findings to the public.
