The Department of Psychology, Faculty of Education held a psychology workshop at Abdullah Sigit Hall. This scientific discussion forum invited a psychology lecturer at Soegijapranata Catholic University, Lucia Trisni Widhianingtanti.

This scientific forum aimed to develop insight and scientific knowledge of psychology. Lucia's topic is "Positive Emotions," which is the theme of a branch of positive psychology, to observe and develop the good side of humans.

The hope is that knowing positive psychology will lead individuals to pure happiness and make humans function optimally in their lives, both in their families, communities, and countries.

"With these strong individual traits, it will be possible to realize individual strength and empowerment in nation-building," said Lucia.

Lucia also explained the positive emotions that were born from the type of time. It turns out that emotions are closely related to the period. "For example, in the past, positive emotions that arise are a sense of satisfaction, pride, and calm. Emotions in the present are satisfaction and gratification. And emotions in the future are related to optimism, hope, confidence, and self-confidence," said Lucia.

Arummayang Nuansa Ainurrizki, one of the students who participated in this scientific workshop, expressed his appreciation for the material presented by Lucia. "Knowing positive emotions and their impact on us makes us realize that controlling our feelings has a big effect on our behavior," said Arummayang.

One of the hopes of this activity is that students can be motivated to learn and add insight into the science of positive psychology. (Muhammad Abdul Hadi/JK, ts-Alina)
