Expressions activating this band frame life in evaluative terms through mixed but recognizable judgments about hardship, optimism, social regard, friendship, resilience, and making the most of life. Life is treated as something that can go well or poorly, but the evaluation remains situational or qualified.

Intense Life Appraisal
