Clarifying the Concept of Well-Being: Psychological Need Satisfaction as the Common Core Connecting Eudaimonic and Subjective Well-Being (2019, background): “First, there are the objectivists who claim that eudaimonia is not about subjective feelings but rather refers to an objective quality of a life (e.g., Haybron, 2008; Kristjánsson, 2010).”
Moving Beyond Subjective Well-Being (2014, background): “Kristjansson (2010) similarly argues that “people would not in retrospect, count themselves as happy even if their brains had been connected to a machine that guaranteed them uninterrupted flow of hedonistic pleasure (p. 300)”.”
Positive Psychology and Positive Education: Old Wine in New Bottles? (2012, background): “…in mind, however, that the positive psychology movement is only 10 years old (if one dates its origin back to Seligman & Csikszentmihalyi’s, 2000, manifesto), it may be premature to accuse it of not having yet exhausted the repertoire of all its three pillars (see further in Kristjánsson, 2010a).”
