Movies and TV Shows: A Thrill Beyond Joy and Meaning

Lately, researchers in the field of psychology have been digging deeper into what makes people happy. They found out there are three things that make us feel good: - Enjoyment (like eating a good meal, laughing, or just doing something you really like) - A sense of purpose (like achieving a goal, learning, or helping others) - the third one is a bit more interesting: psychological richness, which includes variety, novelty, and interest. Psychologists have been looking at movies and TV shows to see if they can make us feel these things. They did some studies and found out that TV shows and movies can make us feel all three of these things. There was a mix-up in some studies where people thought that feeling fulfilled was the only thing that mattered. But the researchers figured out that it's not just about feeling good or having a purpose. It's also about experiencing something new and interesting. This could be done through media, such as TV shows and movies. The studies were done with over 200 people in Germany, and a few other places. This shows that there are many ways to make us feel good, and one of them is by watching movies and TV shows.
