Positive Psychology and Spirituality Survey

Joe Ciarrocchi at Loyola University asked me to pass along this link to his latest study. Here is a brief description:

Positive psychology is an important new field of study which helps correct an imbalance in the scientific study of human nature. Previously most research examined emotional pain, psychological disorders, and problem behaviors. A new emphasis is to study a wider range of human attitudes and motivation. The current study is interested in how people describe themselves across additional domains that include their character strengths. Positive psychology is also interested in spirituality as one aspect of this new exploration. Participating in the study will help us see how these attitudes, behaviors, and motivations fit together in ways that are currently unknown.
