happiness
For anyone who is not taking Positive Psychology, but who is nonetheless interested in either being happy or research into happiness, I've uploaded some articles that may interest you:

Although it may come as a shock to some, money does not make people happier. Simple acts of gratitude or altruism do, however.
Also, for those interested in happiness or the intersection between psychology and economics, I encourage you to check out the upcoming lectures at Harvard featuring Nobel Laureate Daniel Kahneman. More info can be found here:
