5. :A VISIONARY NEW UNDERSTANDING OF HAPPINESS AND WELL-BEING. (2011)

6. LEARNED HELPLESSNESS Is seligma’s foundational experiments and began as an e xtention of his interest in depression. By accident, seligman and colleagues discovered that the experimental conditions, the recently conditioned dogs did not respond to opportunities to learn to escape from an unpleasant situation. Seligman developed the theory further, finding learned helplessness to be a psychological condition in which a human being or an animal has learned to act or behave helplessly in a particular situation-usually after experiencing some inability to avoid an adverse situation-even harmful circumstance. Seligman saw a similarity with severely depressed patients, and argued that clinical depression and related mental illnesses result in part from a perceived absence of control over the outcome of a situation.

7. LEARNED OPTIMISM LEARNED OPTIMISM IS A CONCEPTS FROM POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY’S FOUNDING FATHER; MARTIN SELIGMAN, THAT ARGUES THAT WE CAN CULTIVATE A POSITIVE PERSPECTIVE. WITH A MORE JOYFUL OUTLOOK ON LIFE, HE EXPLAINS, WE’RE IN A MUCH BETTER POSITION TO ENHANCE OUR WELL BEING.

8. WHAT YOU CAN CHANGE AND WHAT YOU CAN’T WISE, DIRECT, AND VERY USEFUL, A SCIENCE-BASED BOOK THAT CAN HELP ANYONE MAKE LONG-LASTING CHANGE. THERE IS AN OVERWHELMING AMOUNT OF INFORMATION ABOUT TREATMENTS FOR EVERYTHING FROM ALCOHOL ABUSE TO SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION.

9. The optimistic child in the optimistic child, dr. martin e.p . Seligman offers parents, teachers and coaches a well-validated program to prevent depression in children. In a thirty-year study Seligman and his colleagues discovered the link between pessimism-dwelling on the most catastrophic cause of any setback-and depression.

10. AUTHENTIC HAPPINESS IN HIS 2002 BOOK AUTHENTIC HAPPINESS , SELIGMAN SAW HAPPINESS AS MADE UP OF POSITIVE EMOTION, ENGAGEMENT, AND MEANING.

11. FLOURISH IN THIS BOOK, 2011, SELIGMAN WROTE ON “WELL-BEING THEORY”, AND SAID, WITH RESPECT ON HOW HE MEASURES WELL-BEING: EACH ELEMENT OF WELL-BEING MUST ITSELF HAVE THREE PROPERTIES TO COUNT AS AN ELEMENT ; IT CONTRIBUTES TO WELL-BEING. MANY PEOPLE PURSUE IT FOR ITS OWN SAKE, NOT MERELY TO GET ANY OF THE OTHER ELEMENTS. IT IS DEFINED AND MEASURED INDEPENDENTLY OF THE OTHER ELEMENTS

12. HE CONCLUDED THAT THERE ARE FIVE ELEMENTS TO “WELL-BEING”, WHICH FALL UNDER THE MNEMONIC ‘PERMA’; POSITIVE EMOTION – CAN ONLY BE ASSESSED SUBJECTIVELY. ENGAGEMENT – LIKE POSITIVE EMOTION, CAN ONLY BE MEASURED THROUGH SUBJECTIVE MEANS. IT IS PRESENT OF A FLOW STATE. RELATIONSHIP – THE PRESENCE OF FRIENDS, FAMILY, INTIMACY, OR SOCIAL CONNECTION. MEANING – BELONGING TO AND SERVING SOMETHING BIGGER THAN ONE’S SELF. ACHIEVEMENT- ACCOMPLISHENT THAT IS PURSUED EVEN WHEN IT BRINGS NO POSITIVE EMOTION, NO MEANING, AND NOTHING IN THE WAY OF POSITIVE RELATIONSHIP.

13. SELIGMAN WORKED WITH CHRISTOPHER PETERSON TO CREATE WHAT THEY DESCRIBE AS A “ POSITIVE ” COUNTERPART TO THE DIAGNOSTIC AND STATISTICAL MANUAL OF MENTAL DISORDERS (DSM). WHILE THE DSM FOCUSES ON WHAT CAN GO WRONG, CHARACTER STRENGTHS AND VIRTUES (2004) IS DESIGNED TO LOOK AT WHAT CAN GO RIGTH. IN THEIR RESEARCH THEY LOOKED ACROSS CULTURES AND ACROSS MILLENNIA TO ATTEMPT TO DISTILL A MANAGEABLE LIST OF VIRTUES THAT HAVE BEEN HIGHLY VALUED FROM ANCIENT CHINA AND INDIA, THROUGH GREECE AND ROME, TO CONTEMPORARY WESTERN CULTURES. CHRISTOPHER PETERSON MARTIN SELIGMAN

14. THEIR LIST INCLUDES SIX CHARACTER STRENGTHS: WISDOM/KNOWLEDGE COURAGE HUMANITY JUSTICE TEMPERANCE TRANCEDENCE THE AUTHORS DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A HEIRARCHY FOR THE SIX VIRTUES: ( NO ONE IS MORE FUNDAMENTAL THAN OR A PRECURSOR TO THE OTHERS .) THE MASTER OF APPLIED POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY (MAPP) PROGRAM AT THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA WAS ESTABLISHED UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF SELIGMA AS THE FIRST EDUCATIONAL INITIATIVE OF THE POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY CENTER IN 2003.
