Abstract

In 2011, the Journal of Positive Psychology published a special issue titled ‘The state of positive psychology in higher education’. The editor, Acacia Parks, began the introductory editorial with the following paragraph:Over the last decade, the field of positive psychology has experienced rapid growth and expansion. We have seen significant theoretical advancements, have developed myriad techniques for increasing happiness, and have made major strides in the dissemination of both research and practice to the general public. In no area of application has positive psychology flourished more, however, than in higher education.1
