as elusive as happiness is the subject of debate. Most
researchers merely ask participants to report their levels
of happiness or misery and to rate how fulfilling their
lives are. Over years of retesting, such self-reported
well-being has remained moderately consistent. Those
participants taking part in tests smile more than people
who describe themselves as miserable, and their
daily mood evaluations reflect more pleasant feelings.
Other indicators of well-being are also predicted
by self-reported happiness. Happy people are less
self-focused, less angry and abusive, and less prone to
illness than depressed people. Happiness is difficult to
anticipate based on external factors like money or other
necessities of life, but for those who have it, it seems
to be a consistent state. The happiest people in 2012
were still largely happy ten years later, despite changes
in work, home, and family status, according to a National
Institute on Aging study of 5,000 adults.
