Assignment 2: Self-Regulation and Control

According to positive psychology, the
absence of good feelings or experiences can cause more negative
emotions. Focusing on the positive and bringing in positive experiences
may cultivate pleasure, engagement, and meaning. Individuals can learn
to control and even increase the number of positive experiences as
well as to regulate and diminish the number of negative experiences.

Using the module readings, Argosy
University online library resources, and the Internet, identify and
analyze two articles concerning empirical evidence supporting the use of
positive psychology, especially in the area of self-regulation and
control.

Based on your research and analysis of the articles, address the following:

  • Evaluate the effectiveness of five positive psychology techniques.
  • Examine empirically supported positive psychology interventions to promote well-being.
  • Make a minimum of five recommendations for self-regulation and control.
