Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2024/Life satisfaction and personality

Initial suggestions

@U3242288: Thanks for tackling this topic. Some initial suggestions:* Breadth vs. depth. This is a broad topic, which is fine, but it will need to be an overview, with embedded links to more specific chapters. However, if you find that you are interested in a specific aspect of this topic we can also tailor a different, more specific topic.

• Check out other related chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work:
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Life satisfaction
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Personality
• Also search past book chapters for related topics
• For the topic development, consider:
  • What psychological theory(ies) can help to understand and explain this topic?
  • What is the main research in this area?Let me know if I can do anything else to support the development of this chapter.
