Advances in biotechnology and information technology are poised to transform well-being research. This article reviews the technologies that we predict will have the most impact on both measurement and intervention in the field of positive psychology over the next decade. These technologies include: psychopharmacology, non-invasive brain stimulation, virtual reality environments, and big-data methods for large-scale multivariate analysis. Some particularly relevant potential costs and benefits to individual and collective well-being are considered for each technology as well as ethical considerations. As these technologies may substantially enhance the capacity of psychologists to intervene on and measure well-being, now is the time to discuss the potential promise and pitfalls of these technologies.
生物技术和信息技术的进步有望改变幸福研究。本文回顾了我们预计在未来十年对积极心理学领域的测量和干预产生最大影响的技术。这些技术包括：精神药理学、非侵入性脑刺激、虚拟现实环境以及用于大规模多变量分析的大数据方法。每种技术都考虑了对个人和集体幸福的一些特别相关的潜在成本和收益以及伦理考量。由于这些技术可能会大幅提高心理学家干预和测量幸福的能力，现在是时候讨论这些技术的潜在前景和陷阱了。
