• A Meaningful Life is a Healthy Life: A Conceptual Model Linking Meaning and Meaning Salience to Health (2018, background): “Meaning in life is a multidimensional construct with three aspects: comprehension (feeling as though one’s life makes sense), purpose (feeling directed and motivated by valued goals), and mattering (feeling that one’s existence is significant; George & Park, 2016a).”
• Meaning in Life as Comprehension, Purpose, and Mattering: Toward Integration and New Research Questions (2016, methodology): “The factor analyses suggested that underlying the items are three correlated factors that correspond to the comprehension, purpose, and mattering subconstructs (George & Park, 2016).”
