Course Description

Positive Psychology is the scientific study of the kinds of things that lead to well-being, resilience, and happiness. In this course, we will review some of recent research in this area, covering a range of topics such as the effects of sleep, exercise, community, meditation, medication, laughter, acts of kindness, and play (among others). We will also consider how well-being is measured and assessed, from questionnaires and self-reflection to physiological tests.
