“…This investigation marks an important step in rigorous research to uncover the costs and benefits of integrating wellbeing investment and positive interventions in the real world using feasible methods. The global interest in attaining happiness (Diener, 2000;Goldberg et al, 2009) continues to maintain widespread appeal -affirmed by the number of happiness seeking volunteers this study attracted. Such popularity coupled with unprecedented smartphone usage and rising reliance on applications (Khalaf, 2013), strongly suggests that smartphone-based methodology and engagement via application is a rational progression for wellbeing researchers to make.…”

Smartphones are revolutionizing approaches to wellbeing investment. Those seeking greater happiness can engage with thousands of downloadable self-help applications instantly, yet the effectiveness of these strategies remains unknown. As wellbeing can be significantly enhanced by positive psychological interventions, the present investigation explored the viability of delivering this content in application format to the happiness seekers it is targeting. A smartphone-based randomized-controlled trial was conducted with a self-selecting pool, randomly assigned to engage with an empirically based mindfulness intervention (n = 57) or a placebo intervention (n = 64) for ten days. The study explored the feasibility of smartphone intervention delivery, the importance of empirically based content and the extent to which subjective experience ratings related to wellbeing gains. Results showed engagement with the mindfulness application lead to significant gains in positive affect with a medium effect size and reduced depressive symptoms with a small effect size. No significant gains were observed in the control condition. Ratings of task enjoyment were positively associated with wellbeing gains. A positive trend was observed between task ease and gains made. Findings support the viability of smartphone-based interventions to significantly enhance wellbeing, underscoring the importance of application content and person-activity fit. This investigation presents implications for happiness seeking strategies in the real world whilst showcasing a dynamic method of intervention delivery that can benefit future research and practice. The greatest mission of positive psychology is to enhance global flourishing; the prevalence of smartphones and the potential of interventions may play a vital role.

“…Attaining long-term happiness is an important goal shared by many individuals world-wide (Diener, 2000; Diener, Suh, Smith, & Shao, 1995; Goldberg et al, 2009). Trumping more “objective” factors like material wealth or physical attractiveness, happiness is central to lay people's beliefs about what makes life worth living (King & Napa, 2008).…”

Although the last decade has witnessed mounting research on the development and evaluation of positive interventions, investigators still know little about the target population of such interventions: happiness seekers. The present research asked three questions about happiness seekers: (1) What are their general characteristics?, (2) What do they purposefully do to become happier?, and (3) How do they make use of self-help resources? In Study 1, we identified two distinct clusters of online happiness seekers. In Study 2, we asked happiness seekers to report on their use of 14 types of happiness-seeking behaviors. In Study 3, we tracked happiness seekers' usage of an iPhone application that offered access to eight different happiness-increasing activities, and assessed their resulting happiness and mood improvements. Together, these studies provide a preliminary portrait of happiness seekers' characteristics and naturalistic behaviors.

“…The early research on consumer intent recognition can be broadly categorized into template matching-based approaches and guided classification-based approaches [13]. Goldberg et al [14] explored consumption intent by gathering wish lists and product reviews shared by internet users. They then employed rule templates to compare these texts.…”

E-commerce with the immersive scene of live streaming gives users a new interaction and consumption experience, extending a new path for traditional marketing. Live barrage, being the primary means of users' social engagement in live e-commerce, encapsulates their inclination to purchase products, commonly referred to as consumption intention. The mining of live barrage enables the exploration of latent user behavior and consumption intention. The current methods employed for mining consumption intention in e-commerce live barrage encounter challenges including insufficient corpus, excessively brief text, and significant semantic deficiencies. Therefore, this study proposes a paradigm of consumption intention recognition by combining the text features of barrage: by constructing a dataset of Live barrage, cleaning the original dataset, and then using a fused Bert's feature network model Bert-BiLSTM to identify the consumption intention in live e-commerce Live barrage. The experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method for recognizing consumption intention. Finally, this study conducted text mining on live barrage containing consumption intent, including word cloud visualization, topic extraction, and cooccurrence analysis, further investigating consumers' purchasing needs and intentions.
