Positive Psychology, Happiness and Altruism

Happiness, kindness, altruism, compassion and empathy……how do these human traits and emotions alter levels of happiness compared to indifference, selfishness, animosity and hatred?

This video by Aryasb Feiz brilliantly captures the difference between kindness, altruism and indifference.

The study of human happiness and positivity within the world of behavioural science is in it’s infancy compared to the study of problematic behaviours, such as offending, mental health and psychopathology.  We focus on utilising what we know about positive psychology to help lever our focus towards building the positive and reducing the negative, all the while, managing risk.
