Document Summary
Review for test: test is on feb 13, 2018. Hedonic treadmill a tendency of people to quickly return to a certain level of happiness despite major positive/negative life changes. It"s sort of the addi(cid:272)tio(cid:374) (cid:373)odel, people al(cid:449)ays (cid:449)a(cid:374)t to read the sa(cid:373)e high they have experienced before but they will need to work twice as hard to reach that same high again. Set point theory everyone has their own self point where you have a pre-disposition to the amount/level of happiness. Experiences that are shared with many other people. Societal plasticity able to change, mold (does society change in the result of an event?) The time your body gives you to do something. What the culture thinks you should be doing by your age. Generativity point in time where adults reflect as to what they have done so far and decided whether they want to do something else or keep doing the same thing.
