Evolving a canonical human behavior model of well-being
2018
Subjective well-being (SWB) has been associated with various outcomes such as performance, engagement and satisfaction. In turn SWB has been associated with the fulfillment of various needs. While there is extensive research on the role of need fulfillment on SWB, the specification of the processes by which need fulfillment impact SWB which in turn impacts various outcomes of interest, is yet to be explored fully. In this paper, we explore these processes and present an initial psycho cognitive architectural model which ties these elements together. Using a need fulfillment paradigm, the proposed architecture outlines a canonical model of SWB incorporating individual-level dimensions, namely traits, physiological and psychological states, along with their intervening need fulfillment processes, which enable a computational agent to plan and execute a course of action. We simulate a scenario using this architecture and conclude with discussing the key takeaways and scope for further research from this work.
