“Well-Being Science: 4 Decades of Progress and New Frontiers”


Hosted by the Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences

Abstract: Psychologists began to examine well-being in earnest in the 1980s. Over the last 4 decades, many debates on measurement, heritability, and the role of current moods have been resolved. This talk will explore the new frontiers of well-being research ranging from the spatial clustering of happiness to the computational model of well-being to the new concept of a psychologically rich life.
