Research in resilience has evolved slowly over time. The research done on resilience over the last five decades lacks the cultural sensitivity as well as how the community impacts the process of resilience (Ungar, 2004, 2005; Boyden & Mann, 2005). The study has primarily investigated the mainstream western population's individual understanding of healthy functioning. Thus, there is a gap in knowledge regarding cross-cultural validation of the findings and rigorous qualitative inquiries into the factors; that might be associated with resilience in the context of non-western communities and marginalized groups living among their 'conventional' neighbours in western settings. This review aims to analyse the current resilience research done in India and to formulate a culturally appropriate model of resilience for the population. Out of 86 relevant publications first identified through systematic search on several data bases, 8 studies were finalized and went through inductive thematic analysis of the content relevant to research questions. Following the analysis process, detailed analytical themes and final characteristics of the resilience model were established. The results show that resilience remains an amorphous concept that is affected by both individual and social influences. However, there are some clear and well-established global elements that transcend the bounds of culture. Incorporation of social and psychological inquiry is recommended for future research.Keywords

“The destiny of games is to become boring…Fun is a process and routine is its destination (Koster, 2013).” This paper reviews the role of experiencing flow in videogames and identifies the precursors, properties, and probable outcomes. The potential importance of games has not been adequately studied in terms of the benefits for young individuals who are at risk (Kutner & Olson, 2008). The aim of this review is to increase the awareness about association between games and flow and to provide a model of flow in gaming that can be applied to improve wellbeing. This paper distinguishes the strengths of current games that generate positive affect, better functioning and scopes of socializing that promotes and supports player's mental health and collective well-being of the gaming community.Keywords

With the help of this review paper, we aimed to expand upon the existing research on resilience and post-traumatic growth in the context of environments of occupations, war, and war-like situations, and across cultures. Previous research on PTG and resilience was limited, hence there is a need to understand the impact of resilience and the importance of PTG. The review is a detailed study of PTG and resilience across domains and how it is different within and between different populations. It is found to be true that in war or war-like situations as well as among different occupations that high levels of resilience were associated with the lowest posttraumatic growth. However, it also depends on individual differences, perceived social support, and the longevity of exposure to the traumatic event. Cultural factors are linked with resilience and PTG which helps to deal with traumatic situations.Keywords

Duality of human nature has often been the centre of numerous works of art. However, what has been relatively hidden is the underlying duality in the makers. Starting from Greek philosopher Aretaeus of Cappadocia's notes which mention mania and melancholia as two manifestations of the same ailment in the 1st century B.C (Angst & Marneros, 2001). However, the modern conceptualization of bipolarity as a disorder was done by Emil Kraepelin (Bar & Ebert, 2010), and named it “manic-depressive insanity". One of the seminal works about the link of bipolar disorder, the manic phase to be more precise; was written by Lloyd-Evans et al. (2006) that has partly inspired this undertaking. There is a persevering belief in western communities that creativity and the manic phases of bipolar disorder are somehow linked. That has been investigated in this paper. While there are some beneficial effects of unfiltered stimuli entering brain during the manic phase on creativity, no definite causal relation between bipolar disorder and creativity has been found.Keywords

This review involves an in-depth look at the available literature on Maladaptive Daydreaming (MD), a compulsive condition of creating fake scenarios that lead to immense distress and issues in various domains of life. The fake scenarios are continuous and are initiated by music, image, and speech. Neuro-biologically, the cognitive activities associated with this condition have their bases in the default mode network of the brain. On one hand, MD promotes creativity, future planning, and self-awareness but on the other hand, it makes it hard to engage in daily activities fully by creating performance issues and distractions. Psycho-dynamically, an Ambivalent-fearful type attachment style can be seen in maladaptive daydreamers. In certain cases, this condition might take the form of celebrity worship and reality shifting. Keeping the severity and issues created by this condition in our mind, we have carefully explored the peripheral facets of Maladaptive Daydreaming to reach to its core.Keywords

Flow is a state of entire immersion in the present action, which can lead to effortless and joyful performances. The primary objective of this systematic literature review was directed toward comprehending the meaning of flow in students' everyday activities, analysing the link between flow and intrinsic motivation, investigating variables that impact the occurrence of flow, and investigating how flow is achieved. In order to achieve the decided objectives, a PRISMA directed systematic review was conducted in April 2022 to examine the empirical evidence for a flow intrinsic motivation relationship, factors contributing to the enhancement of the flow state and intrinsic motives in students. Peer-reviewed publications that analysed the association between flow and intrinsic motivation in education and the learning domain were explored for using three online databases of Scopus, PubMed, and JSTOR with the same search strings. A total of eight publications fulfilled the inclusion criteria, consisting of 15 studies that were suitable for thematic analysis. The eligibility of the selected studies to be included in the study was done using the Qualysyst Tool, which yielded a cut-off summary score of 0.80 and above. These 8 studies were further studied for thematic analysis. The results depicted a strong positive correlation between the states of intrinsic motivation and experience of the flow situation. It was also established that the balance of complexities and skills, as well as immersion in the task, including explicitly stated goals and timely feedback, create the way for a flow experience.

Humour is one of the mesmerizing qualities possessed by human beings which provides a positive and funny outlook towards the stressful events that take place in one's life, making the coping process efficient. According to the studies conducted earlier, humour has been conceptualized as a multi-faceted construct, with adaptive and maladaptive styles of humour. The affiliative and self-enhancing styles of humour have been studied to be beneficial for mental health. Whereas, the aggressive and self-defeating styles of humour are considered to be detrimental to it. This research theorized that there is an association between the styles of humour and the types of self-esteem, which has been supported by various studies. The findings indicate that both types of self-esteem are positively associated with the self-enhancing and affiliative styles of humour and negatively associated with self-defeating humour. The possible positive relation between aggressive style of humour and explicit self-esteem is also discussed along with the implication of humour in various fields.

This study aimed to investigate the mean difference in well-being of young adults, student population of India. This study also looked at the social support's partial mediating role between resilience and well-being (total effect=1.1674), in a sample of young adults in India (N = 202). The results have shown significant mean differences based on gender (0.024) and level of education (0.033). Through Pearson's R correlation, we found a positive relationship between resilience and well-being (0.402), well-being and social support (0.401) and social support and resilience (0.147). All three relations were significant at 0.05 level of significance. The results show that wellbeing is positively influenced by the level of education. Between the genders, females experience a higher effect and level of well-being, through education given similar circumstances. The study highlights the need for exploratory research regarding influence of education on well-being, along with the need for empirical research on the relationship between resilience, well-being, and perceived social support.Keywords

Spirituality, which has recently gained popularity in psychology, is empirically proven to play a significant part in the well-being of an individual. Children, who are naturally curious and exploring nature have gained researcher’s attention. And the history of research on childhood spirituality has had mixed outcomes. Despite that, a lot of evidence points to a child’s spirituality playing a significant part throughout their developmental process. This paper critically reviews the existing research and provides an overview of childhood spirituality and its relation to developmental aspects of their lives. Further, it is suggested to adapt a purely spiritual lens to study childhood spirituality, along with clearly defined research methods. Additionally, spirituality is relatively a vague concept. Attempts should be made to explain the concept in a more precise manner.Keywords

Grit was conceived as the compound of consistency of interests and perseverance of effort. It has further evolved to include adaptability to situations and steadfastness in adverse situations in non-Western contexts. Researchers worldwide have studied grit in the context of education, academic achievement, job performance, athlete success, and physical and mental health outcomes. Grit literature has attracted criticism in recent times with respect to the theoretical and empirical foundations of grit as a construct. This critical review provides a comprehensive analysis of the conceptualization of grit beyond the WEIRD context, its measurement, correlates, and cross-cultural efforts at studying grit and enhancing grit. Future suggestions for grit research are provided including the diversification of population and methodology, with an emphasis on health and well-being outcomes associated with grit.Keywords

Medical professionals of the modern era have begun incorporating energy healing as one of the supplements to modern medical treatment after noticing its merits. Many studies have been conducted to understand the benefits of these methods when utilized as complementary & alternative medicine (CAM) to modern medicine. Pranic Healing, an energy healing technique, is one such approach. This paper aims to review the existing research on Pranic Healing (PH), and Twin Heart Meditation (MTH) to assess their effectiveness and applicability as adjuvant therapeutic techniques. This paper acknowledges the effectiveness of PH and MTH and makes an effort to respond to the research questions provided. From the review, it could be concluded that Pranic healing can potentially treat various illnesses in the Indian population and among women. It was also found that MTH predicts positive mental health outcomes. The limitations of the paper have been discussed, along with recommendations for the future that might be pertinent for additional research.Keywords
