- W2132226412 abstract "An important goal for psychology is advancing knowledge about how to help people increase their levels of happiness, positive mental health, and personal thriving. This chapter briefly outlines the evidence both for and against the “intentional happiness” proposition. Recent theory and research both persuasively suggest that increasing happiness is possible through intentional positive activities. Happiness-increasing intentional activities may be cognitive or behavioral. The chapter discusses some of the factors contributing to the success of positive activities and the mechanisms by which they work to increase well-being. Intentional improvements in people's mental health predict positive physical health outcomes. Research suggests that simple, brief positive activities conducted at work can effectively increase employee happiness. There are emerging reasons to believe that “the pursuit of happiness” is indeed a practical and attainable goal. The chapter describes these reasons and reviews theoretical and empirical evidence to suggest how individuals can optimally increase their happiness." @default.
