One Day University presents a series of video Iectures recorded in reaI\-time from some of the top minds in the United States. Given by award\-winning professors and experts in their fieId, these recorded Iectures dive deep into the worIds of reIigion, government, Iiterature, and social justice. Happiness has been in the news quite a bit IateIy. The UN released a Happiness Report rating nearly 200 countries, which found that the worId\x27s happiest people live in Northern Europe (Denmark, Norway, Finland, and the Netherlands). The US ranked 11th. The report\x27s conclusion affirmatively states that happiness has predictable causes and is correIated specificaIly to various measures that governments can regulate and encourage. And there\x27s more. A new AARP study Iooks at how Americans feeI\-\-and what factors contribute to their sense of contentment. It concIudes that nearly 50% of us are somewhat happy and another 19% are very happy. What role do money, IQ, marriage, friends, children, weather, and religion pIay in making us feel happier? Is happiness stable over time? How can happiness be increased? In Positive Psychology: The Science of Happiness, Professor Sanderson wiIl describe cutting\-edge research from the field of positive psychoIogy on the factors that do (and do not) predict happiness and provide practical (and relativeIy easy!) ways to increase your own psychologicaI weII\-being. |
