Lecture on Science of Happiness

A Collaborative Deshantari-ICCC Event
on the 25th of February, 2018 at 2 PM
[Refreshments will follow.]

Lecture Topic: Science of Happiness

Speaker: Prof. John M. Zelenski, Director of the Carleton University Happiness Laboratory

About the Speaker: John Zelenski is a Professor of Psychology at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada.  As a researcher and director of the Carleton University Happiness Laboratory, he studies individual differences in happiness, and how personality manifests itself  ‘in the moment’ as emotional, behavioural, and cognitive processes. Recent work has focused on two areas: the causes and consequences of social behaviour (e.g., in relation to the personality trait of introversion-extraversion), and the links among nature, people’s sense of connection to nature (nature relatedness), happiness, and environmentally sustainable behaviour.
