Positive Psychology

Meer over het boek

Focusing on human flourishing and well-being, positive psychology, founded by Martin Seligman, emphasizes understanding factors that contribute to a fulfilling life rather than just addressing dysfunction. It explores themes like optimism, resilience, and gratitude, with Seligman's "Learned Optimism" highlighting the benefits of positive thinking. Influential concepts such as "flow," introduced by Csikszentmihalyi, describe deep engagement and satisfaction. Through research and practical applications, this field aims to improve well-being across various sectors, including education and healthcare.
