Psychosocial functioning refers to the interaction between psychological and social factors that influence an individual's overall well-being and ability to function effectively in their daily lives. This research area examines the ways in which cognitive, emotional, and social factors contribute to mental health, social relationships, and overall quality of life. Psychosocial functioning research often explores the impact of factors such as personality traits, family dynamics, social support, stress, and coping strategies on an individual's psychological health and social adjustment. Understanding psychosocial functioning can help researchers and practitioners develop interventions and treatments to improve mental health and enhance overall well-being.
