Seligman's concept of positive psychology  

Définition

  • In recent years, there has been a swell of textbooks, handbooks, journal articles, and college classes, all bearing the description “positive psychology.” The term positive psychology refers to a current movement within the field and an approach to research and application rooted in psychology's intellectual history. Simply put, positive psychology is the pursuit of scientific knowledge, both theoretical and applied, that focuses on people's strengths and abilities and essentially what makes life worth living, for instance, pleasant emotions and beneficial social relationships.
