The Compass for Life: Ways to thrive
In 2016 the APS ran the Compass for Life campaign to impart psychology knowledge and skills to Australians by sharing Ways to Thrive.
The APS conducted research, surveying Australian adults and young people to measure their wellbeing and life satisfaction across five key domains: positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning and accomplishment, known as PERMA. The results were released during Psychology Week, and Australians were also invited to take an online survey to find their own measure of happiness and wellbeing.
