Which field studies human flourishing and seeks factors promoting well-being, resilience, positive emotions, and psychological health?

• A. Positive Psychology
• B. Resilience
• C. Character Strengths
• D. Signature Strengths

Answer: (A)

Positive psychology focuses on human flourishing and how to promote well-being, resilience, positive emotions, and psychological health. It looks at what allows people to thrive, grow, and lead meaningful lives, often studying strengths, happiness, and factors that support mental wellness rather than only treating illness. While resilience, character strengths, and signature strengths are important ideas explored within this field, they are specific concepts or tools used to understand and foster well-being, not the field as a whole. Researchers in this area investigate ways to cultivate well-being through practices, relationships, and interventions that enhance overall life satisfaction and mental health.
