Topic: Positive Psychology Positive psychology is the scientific study of cognitions, interpersonal strategies, and environmental conditions associated with well-being. We will discuss common misconceptions about happiness, examine the cognitive biases that often get in the way, and look closely at the cognitions and behaviors that are actually associated with resilience and life satisfaction. Students will also have the opportunity to think critically about how to apply this knowledge to both improve their communities and live a happier life. **Elective course for Clinical/Community, Intradisciplinary, Personality, or Social Psychology Concentration**
