Existential Positive Psychology (EPP), also referred to as Positive Existential Psychology (PEP), represents a synthesis of two psychological paradigms: Positive Psychology (PP) and Existential Psychology (EP). While Positive Psychology, spearheaded by Martin Seligman in the late 1990s, emphasizes human strengths, virtues, and the pursuit of happiness, Existential Psychology delves into the darker aspects of human existence—death, meaninglessness, freedom, and isolation (Wong, 2010; Seligman, 1999). EPP bridges these two domains, offering a more holistic understanding of human flourishing by integrating the light of positivity with the shadows of existential angst.

摘要

Existential Positive Psychology (EPP), also referred to as Positive Existential Psychology (PEP), represents a synthesis of two psychological paradigms: Positive Psychology (PP) and Existential Psychology (EP). While Positive Psychology, spearheaded by Martin Seligman in the late 1990s, emphasizes human strengths, virtues, and the pursuit of happiness, Existential Psychology delves into the darker aspects of human existence—death, meaninglessness, freedom, and isolation (Wong, 2010; Seligman, 1999). EPP bridges these two domains, offering a more holistic understanding of human flourishing by integrating the light of positivity with the shadows of existential angst.
