The new edition of this bestselling book, The Psychology of Meaning in Life, has been thoroughly updated to offer an inspiring exploration of cutting-edge findings from the psychology of meaning in life. Schnell draws on multiple psychological and philosophical perspectives, including those from existential, clinical, social, positive, and health psychology, and lived experience to introduce a multidimensional model of meaning in life.
Written in an accessible style and full of practical, evidence-based applications, this book covers a range of topics, including the distinction between meaning and happiness, the impact of meaning on health and longevity, the connection between worldview and meaning, meaning in the workplace, meaning-centred interventions, and existential communication. The Hierarchic Meaning Model explains how meaning emerges, from basic perception to the complex experience of meaning in life. By situating meaningfulness experienced as significance, purpose, coherence, and belonging within broader social contexts, the book discusses the effects of inequality and global crises and suggests introducing an ethics of meaning. Measurement tools are presented, and each chapter ends with exercises to encourage self-reflection, inspiring the reader to consider the role of meaning in their own life.
The Psychology of Meaning in Life, second edition has crucial significance for advancing the field of existential health. It is essential reading for students, researchers, and practitioners of psychology, sociology, counselling, pastoral care, coaching, healthcare, and related disciplines, and for general readers interested in exploring what makes life meaningful.
