==Wiki Education assignment: Psychology Capstone==
== This is irony - if not insanity - raised to the power of infinity, and beyond ... ==

Taken at face value and assessed objectively, this is a description of ... ah, er, um - how can I put this tactfully - hell, a manifestly self-delusional state. A mental illness of some kind.

Alert the DSM and ICD editorial committees; there's a new kid on the block; PPD - Positive Psychology Disorder.

Positivity is the end, is it not? The desired end. It cannot at once be the end, and [sanely] the means to that same end, the means to itself, can it? If so, ''what does'' that mean? To me this is a concept that is preordained to forever seek - and never find - it's rationale.

The therapy you need when ... in no need of a therapy. "You're doing fine! That'll be $100, thank-you very much. Cash or card? Next patient, please!"

I'd posit 'positive psychology' as an example of, or analogous with, a style of [self-serving] mathematical proof. A proof of insanity. By the use of reductive and/or inductive techniques. QED! 'Positive psychology', I'd assert, is inherently meaningless. Necessarily useless. Axiomatically oxymoronic and/or tautological. QED. Demonstrated, as required!

Did you know nomination

[edit]
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was: rejected by Mandarax (talk19:16, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry. The article started at 20942 prose characters, so a five times expansion is not really possible. If you get the article to GA status, feel free to resubmit within a week of that designation.

Created/expanded by Eljia7 (talk). Self-nominated at 14:57, 29 November 2020 (UTC).[reply]

  • : This article is not eligible for DYK, as it has not been expanded 5 fold and it was created in 2003. It was expaneded by Eljia7 about two-fold over the last few days. While your work is greatly appreciated, it would be a Herculean task to expand it to a size large enough to be nominated for DYK in the next few days.
