Science is the backbone of positive psychology. The goal of this pre-congress workshop is to hear about and share innovative research in the field of positive psychology. Presentations will feature the latest methodology, findings, and theory, while the programming allows for opportunity to build your network and collaborations. The day is intended for anyone engaged in the science of positive psychology – from students to seasoned professionals. 

New and established scholars are encouraged to submit their latest research findings in poster or flash talk formats for presentation, which can take the form of a poster or 5-minute flash talk.  The event will close with a keynote address by Dr. Nancy Sin, a leading expert in positive psychology, who will be speaking about new insights gleaned from the use of ecological methods to examine well-being in daily life.

 Join us in a day dedicated to promoting the scientific basis of positive psychology!
