ABSTRACT

With the rise of positive psychology near the turn of the twenty-first century (Seligman & Csikszentmihalyi, 2000), the study of virtues has flourished and rapidly expanded. Due to definition and measurement problems, the study of humility got off to a slow start relative to other virtues (Davis, Worthington, & Hook, 2010); however, this appears to be changing, and researchers have begun to study humility in a variety of settings and situations.
