HAPPINESS AND WELL-BEING
Paper #1 Assignment
Spring 2022
Write a 3-5 page typed, double-spaced paper on one of the topics below. Please type the paper in
12-point Times New Roman font, with one-inch margins all around, and a page numssber on each
page. For further guidelines, please consult the handout on writing a philosophy paper, available
on Canvas.
Please submit an electronic copy of your essay, following the instructions below. Please submit
one file, which begins with an outline of your paper and then follows with your paper on a new
page. The outline does not count toward your page count, nor do your references.
Please submit your essay as a Word document. Please follow this file naming convention:
Lastname_Firstname_TopicN.docx. For example, if your name is Henrietta Borkowski and you
write on Topic 2, you will name your file Borkowski_Henrietta_Topic2.docx.
Deductions of two percentage points will be made for each of the following.
1. Missing page numbers. These help me refer to various spots in your paper in my final
comment.
2. Paper not in the correct font, not double-spaced, or with incorrect margins. The paper
needs to be formatted correctly for you and me to see if it meets the guideline for number
of pages.
3. Missing outline or outline not at the beginning of the paper. This is an essential tool for
imposing organizational structure on your paper.
4. Failure to follow the file naming convention. This helps me sort papers by topic before
grading.
5. Submission of a file other than a Microsoft Word document. This is the format most
useful for providing you feedback on your paper and is the industry standard in the work
world.

to do this.) If you do not receive a digital receipt, your paper was not successfully submitted.

Note 3: All papers will be checked by Turnitin.com for indications of plagiarism.
Consider a friend of yours (or someone else you know, or a ‘friend’ of yours) who you think
would score very low on the measures of subjective well-being (SWB) posted on Canvas and
discussed in class. Write a well-focused prescription for your friend for how they can improve
their long-term SWB. Be sure to explain what SWB is in the first place, and how it is measured.
You should include a discussion of at least two internal predictors of SWB and at least two
external predictors of SWB that your friend can choose or change about themselves and discuss
what your friend should do in order to change that aspect. Be sure to write the paper in such a
way that it can be understood by someone who has no prior knowledge of subjective well-being.
