Answer to Question 1

Western ideas related to today's positive psychology have deep roots. Many of the philosophical underpinnings of these ideas can be traced to the ancient Hebrews and Greeks around 2500 years ago. The Hebrews and, later, many Christians followed what we now call the divine command theory of happiness that states that the path to happiness is to follow the commands of a supreme being. If one lives in accordance with divine laws and morals then one lives the good life. Today this influence is studied through research in religiosity, meaning, and spirituality and how these factors influence well-being.
