These differing uses can give different results. Xavier Landes has proposed that happiness include measures of subjective wellbeing, mood and eudaimonia. For instance Sonja Lyubomirsky has described happiness as " the experience of joy, contentment, or positive well-being, combined with a sense that one's life is good, meaningful, and worthwhile." Eudaimonia, is a Greek term variously translated as happiness, welfare, flourishing, and blessedness. Subjective well-being (swb) includes measures of current experience (emotions, moods, and feelings) and of life satisfaction. Some usages can include both of these factors. For instance Ruut Veenhoven has defined happiness as "overall appreciation of one's life as-a-whole." : 2 Kahneman has said that this is more important to people than current experience. appraisal of life satisfaction, such as of quality of life.This usage is prevalent in dictionary definitions of happiness. For instance Daniel Kahneman has defined happiness as " what I experience here and now". the current experience of the feeling of an emotion (affect) such as pleasure or joy, or of a more general sense of 'emotional condition as a whole'.The word is mostly used in relation to two factors: "Happiness" is subject to debate on usage and meaning, and on possible differences in understanding by culture. Since the 1960s, happiness research has been conducted in a wide variety of scientific disciplines, including gerontology, social psychology and positive psychology, clinical and medical research and happiness economics. Other forms include life satisfaction, well-being, subjective well-being, flourishing and eudaimonia. Happiness, in the context of mental or emotional states, is positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.
