以进化心理学视角解析影响幸福的因素

A Look at the Factors Influencing Happiness from the Perspective of Evolutionary Psychology

从古至今,针对如何追求幸福的话题,已将幸福变成一个深刻而复杂的多元化概念。大部分学者甚至把幸福看作人生的最终目标。本文试图运用"进化心理学"的学科特点,深入探讨影响个人幸福的根源、因素特征,并提出获得幸福的方法。揭示出"幸福"并非作为人生最终目的来实现,而是一个机体调节能量的平衡工具,与个人需要相匹配而存在,是人类生存过程中必不可少的位置参照物,使得每个人都有获得幸福的权利。

The pursuit of happiness has been a perennial topic since ancient times. The concept of happiness has evolved into a deep and complex diversity. Most scholars even regard happiness as the ultimate goal in life. Drawing on the characteristics of evolutionary psychology,this paper attempts an investigation into the influencing factors of personal happiness and puts forward a paradigm for obtaining it. It is concluded that happiness is not the ultimate goal to be achieved but rather a necessary tool that modulates physiology and provides energy essential to human survival. In addition,since happiness is an indispensable point of reference in human life,every citizen is entitled to it.
