Zusammenfassung	The Mental Health Continuum Short Form (MHC-SF) is a 14-item measure assessing positive mental health and wellbeing across emotional, social, and psychological domains. Developed by Corey L. M. Keyes in 2002, the MHC-SF operationalizes the conceptualization of mental health as a continuum from languishing to flourishing, distinct from absence of mental illness. The scale captures life satisfaction, positive emotions, autonomy, personal growth, purpose, and social integration. The MHC-SF is widely used in population health research, clinical practice, and recovery-oriented mental health services.	The Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS) is a 41-item self-report measure designed to assess personal recovery in individuals with serious mental illness. Developed by Corrigan and colleagues in 2004, it captures the subjective and multidimensional nature of recovery, including hope, autonomy, goal achievement, and symptom management. The RAS is widely used in psychiatric rehabilitation research and clinical practice.
