ABSTRACT

Our purpose in this literature review was to identify, evaluate, and summarize studies that examine the relationship between happiness and other variables like personality, character strength, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness. We consider 30 research studies published between 2015 to 2022, and all articles were evaluated and summarized for this purpose. The results of the study concerning the big five factors of personality and happiness showed that although there is a correlation between personality features and notions of happiness, it is not so strong. Studies that tried to examine the relationship between the positive side of the Dark Triad traits and happiness showed a stronger positive correlation between narcissism and the notion of happiness. Studies focusing on happiness and its relation to mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and character strengths also reveal a positive correlation between these variables.
