LINEAS DE TRABAJO EN CURSO Y FUTURAS

1.- Actualmente trabajamos en la aplicación de nuestra metodología con otros conceptos emocionales que se consideran próximos a “happiness”. Específicamente trabajamos con el término saadah del árabe.

2.- El conocimiento cotidiano de las personas es posible separarlo en al menos cuatro áreas más específicas, a saber: acerca de las representaciones mentales del concepto, acerca de los factores o causas de la experiencia emocional asociada al concepto, acerca de las motivaciones e importancia de la experiencia asociada y acerca de los términos emocionales relacionados o agrupados jerárquicamente.

En nuestros estudios 2, 3 y 4, referidos específicamente a “happiness” y “felicidad”, no hemos profundizado ni en el conocimiento cotidiano de los factores o causas de la experiencia emocional asociada, como tampoco la relación y estructura jerárquica con los términos emocionales relacionados. Queda planteado el desafío de efectuar exploraciones acerca de esas áreas del conocimiento cotidiano, con el propósito de tener más elementos para comparar ambas categorías emocionales en un espectro más amplio.
