Ten ways to be happy
A quick squeeze of the hundreds of scientific Eksperimentalnaya seriously interested in happiness. Thanks to the research of psychologists, sociologists, psychologists and even economists, we can tell that people need to enjoy life.
To live in Latin American published by Gallup in March this year, the ranking of the happiest countries in the world all of the top ten are from Latin America: Paraguay, Colombia, Ecuador... Even the traditionally prosperous Scandinavia not far behind the richest countries in South America. This phenomenon is confirmed by other polls. Experts explain leadership in Latin America is partly the climate, partly mentality.
Have a lot of Druzes since in sociology the notion of "happiness index", is constantly conducting research designed to answer the question with what the index is associated. The first hypothesis about conditionality of material wealth (and GDP at country level) has long been refuted. Well, that is quite poverty happiness to get difficult, but after reaching a certain level of income (referred to as a figure in the region of $ 8,000 GDP per capita is less than in Russia) the relationship between happiness and wealth is lost.
And finally the answer is found! The study "Eurobarometer in Russia", conducted by the Center for sociological research at the Russian Academy of national economy showed that the happiness Index Russians directly linked to the number of friends and acquaintances. A ten percent increase in indicators such as social capital, increases vitality at once on 14%.
Psychologists confirm: extroverts — people focused more on the external world, communicative and open — much more likely to feel happy than introverts.
Don't wait too mnohopocetny from University College London conducted a series of experiments that showed how the feeling of happiness is related to expectations. The test subjects played games involving pre-setting of objectives, and after the results they were asked to describe their condition.
The conclusion was not so unexpected. Happier felt those who won a big score or a serious amount, and won unexpectedly, even by a small margin.
To be altruistically from the University of British Columbia found out that money and happiness are connected. Only the dependence is rather the opposite: the money need not to get but to give. People who spend their finances on gifts to relatives and friends or to charity, I feel happier than those who spend it on themselves.
To have a husband (wife)of the research proves that married happier than unmarried. This is an average. Actually there are two pitfalls. First, research on the Russian sample confirms such a relationship is not always. For example, according to the "Eurobarometer" and all it turns out that happier divorced family. And secondly, and global figures show that every year, the link is less obvious: singles are actively learning how to enjoy life.
But to say that is more conducive to the happiness of the presence of children or lack of them — the science is: a direct correlation was not detected. But definitely a proven link between feeling of happiness and love, but it is perhaps evident without calculation of correlation coefficients.
Love your abotossaway classic psychology and sociology metacleavage 1989 showed the presence of a strong relationship between the two parameters: satisfaction with work and satisfaction with life in General. Profession in this case is almost irrelevant.
To be in public organizacijski favorite work is not enough, you can remember yet another source of positive emotions. Sociologists have found that people employed in public organizations, a higher level of subjective well-being.
According to the results of a large study conducted a few years ago, a sociologist from the higher school of Economics Elena Petrenko, the happiest respondents have a high index of civil climate and civil behavior. In other words, these people are ready for active civil action, whether fighting forest fires or political protest.
Blame sabaw psychology there is the term "locus of control". Internal locus of control means that a person believes himself to be the author of your own life and responsible for everything that happens in it. External locus of control think that everything depends on other people, God, country, destiny, location, stars, etc.
This figure correlates well with the subjective feeling of well-being. The first studies on several hundreds of people held a psychologist from Taiwan Lou Lou. He showed that people with internal locus of control, on average, much happier than those who give their lives at the mercy of external forces.
To chat with a happy ludmilabraj neurophysiologist Giacomo Rizzolatti — discoverer of the so-called mirror neurons. Their work explains the mechanisms of empathy: when we observe the actions of another person, our brain activates the same area that he, forming relevant experience.
According to the scientist, this same mechanism allows you to become happier. Communication with people, happy life, makes our brain feel the same emotions.
Not to think about scallopine focus on happiness may do a disservice, found psychologists at the University of Denver. The people who called happiness one of the basic values of life, in fact quite rarely experienced this condition.
On the contrary, the respondents, as the values of family, friendship, love, self-development, to question if they are happy, more often said Yes. You need to do what makes you happy and brings satisfaction, not to sit and dream about the happiness, I urge psychologists.published
