  • Positive psychological interventions (PPIs) are beneficial for alleviating depression and improving positive emotions like happiness and life satisfaction in depressed individuals.
  • A systematic review included 14 trials and found that PPIs had small to moderate positive effects on various emotional outcomes, but negligible effects on well-being and negative emotions.
  • More research is needed to confirm the benefits of PPIs on well-being and negative affect since the current studies did not show significant improvements in those areas.
