          Abstract

          Dentro del marco de la Psicología positiva existe una línea de investigación centrada en las virtudes y fortalezas del ser humano, entendidas como rasgos positivos de personalidad, que está elaborando una clasificación de ellas siguiendo un esquema similar al del Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). En este artículo se exponen algunos de los estudios que muestran los efectos beneficiosos de un grupo concreto de estas fortalezas, las trascendentales (espiritualidad, gratitud, esperanza, apreciación de la belleza y excelencia, humor), con la intención de promover su investigación.

          Translated abstract

          Within the framework of Positive Psychology there is a line of research focused on the virtues and strengths of human beings. Taking virtues and strengths as positive traits of personality, the Positive Psychology classifies them following a scheme similar to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). With the aim of promoting research, this article reviews some of the studies that show the beneficial effects of a subset of strengths, the transcendental strengths -i.e. spirituality, gratitude, hope, appreciation of beauty and excellence, and humor.

          The role of positive emotions in positive psychology. The broaden-and-build theory of positive emotions.

          In this article, the author describes a new theoretical perspective on positive emotions and situates this new perspective within the emerging field of positive psychology. The broaden-and-build theory posits that experiences of positive emotions broaden people's momentary thought-action repertoires, which in turn serves to build their enduring personal resources, ranging from physical and intellectual resources to social and psychological resources. Preliminary empirical evidence supporting the broaden-and-build theory is reviewed, and open empirical questions that remain to be tested are identified. The theory and findings suggest that the capacity to experience positive emotions may be a fundamental human strength central to the study of human flourishing.
