ABSTRACT
Whether you generally and reflexively orient to yes or no, the positive or the negative, and what’s right or what’s wrong across your life experiences speaks volumes about your quality of life. Given how powerful a force your orientation toward the inevitable ups and downs of life is on many different quality-of-life measures, it’s surprising that only relatively recently has there
emerged a psychological and social science concerned with the study of a “yes” orientation toward life. That science is known as positive psychology.
