description There has been an increase in the emphasis on the positive feelings and strengths of individuals in the mental health by the emergence of positive psychology approach. Subjective well-being, one of the most important concepts of positive psychology; that consists of life satisfaction, positive and negative emotional components, and is considered as an emotional and cognitive assessment of the individual's life. The concept of ontological well-being, apart from subjective well-being, focuses on the evaluation of one's own life as a project and is the evaluation of life with the consideration of the past, the future, and the present. In this review, "ontological well-being" will be examined in various dimensions as a contemporary subject and several suggestions will be presented to researchers who share this perspective.
