“…Given the results presented in this review, it was concluded that despite the growth in publications on Positive Psychology (Reppold, Gurgel, & Schiavon, 2015), there are, as yet, few studies that aim to assess the effects of interventions based on this area directed towards Positive Education, as defined by Seligman (2009). Among the interventions described in this study, we realized the importance of stimulating the development of strength of character among students, and other specific constructs such as life satisfaction, gratitude, and resilience.…”

“…Ademais, observa-se que os estudos acerca do fenômeno crescimento pós-traumático e as mudanças positivas frente à vivência do trauma têm ganhado, cada vez mais, reconhecimento pela comunidade científica, sobretudo a Psicologia, que durante muitos anos, ignorou a perspectiva positiva, enfatizando apenas o alívio de sintomas e correções dos danos (Reppold et al, 2015). No entanto, o estudo sobre os fatores que predizem ou que resultam desse processo ainda são inconclusivos e contraditórios (Lindstrom et al, 2013), o que reforça a importância de se contar com medidas psicometricamente ajustadas.…”

“…Apresentando-se como uma proposta de equilibrar o foco e os estudos produzidos na área da Psicologia (Reppold, Gurgel, & Schiavon, 2015), pretende superar o enfoque na reparação de danos e focalizar no que faz a vida ter seu valor (Pacico & Bastianello, 2014;Vázquez, 2013).
