    Las perspectivas sobre las fuentes de felicidad e infelicidad (también conceptualizado como "bienestar"), se pueden distinguir en cuanto a su enfoque principal, ya que algunas centran su atención en el ambiente yotras en los pensamientos y sentimientos de los individuos. En este trabajo se analizarán por separado las características del entorno y los procesos mentales del individuo. En la última parte de este artículo se examinará el funcionamiento combinado de ambos enfoques, exponiendo cómo la felicidad puede depender tanto de las características laborales como personales. Finalmente, se presentan una serie de sugerencias para futuras investigaciones, entre las cuales se destaca la necesidad de distinguir entre las diferentes formas de felicidad e infelicidad, tanto a nivel conceptual como empírico, ya que cada una tiene sus propias causas y consecuencias

    Perspectives on the sources of happiness and unhappiness (sometimes viewed as "well-being") may be distinguished in terms of their primary emphasis -either on features in the environment or on people's thoughts and feelings. This paper will separately cover environmental features and within-person mental processes. In a third section, we will present a combined perspective, exposing how happiness may be understood as a function of both job and personal characteristics. Finally, avenues for future research are suggested, emphasising the need to distinguish conceptually and empirically between different forms of happiness and unhappiness, given that each one has its own partly distinct sources and consequences
