Preferred term

positive attitudes and health  

Definition(s)

  • “Is the glass half full or half empty?” Many people use this question as a litmus test of whether a person is an optimist or a pessimist; that is, whether they tend to have positive attitudes or negative attitudes. There are many other tests of positive attitudes, happiness, life satisfaction, and subjective well-being, and most studies using these tests find that positive attitudes are associated with good health.
