Summary
Research on human well-being is divided into two distinct paradigms: hedonic and eudaimonic. The hedonic approach focuses on happiness, defined as the presence of positive emotions and the absence of negative emotions. In contrast, the eudaimonic approach emphasizes the importance of living a meaningful and purposeful life.
