This review paper provides an integrative account regarding neurophysiological correlates of positive emotions and affect that cumulatively contribute to the scaffolding for happiness and wellbeing in humans and other animals. This paper reviews the associations among neurotransmitters, hormones, brain networks, and cognitive functions in the context of positive emotions and affect. Consideration of lifespan developmental perspectives are incorporated, and we also examine the impact of healthy social relationships and environmental contexts on the modulation of positive emotions and affect. The neurophysiological processes that implement positive emotions are dynamic and modifiable, and meditative practices as well as flow states that change patterns of brain function and ultimately support wellbeing are also discussed. This review is part of "The Human Affectome Project" (http://neuroqualia.org/background.php), and in order to advance a primary aim of the Human Affectome Project, we also reviewed relevant linguistic dimensions and terminology that characterizes positive emotions and wellbeing. These linguistic dimensions are discussed within the context of the neuroscience literature with the overarching goal of generating novel recommendations for advancing neuroscience research on positive emotions and wellbeing.
这篇综述论文综合阐述了与积极情绪和情感相关的神经生理学关联，这些关联共同为人类和其他动物的幸福与安康搭建起了支撑框架。本文回顾了在积极情绪和情感背景下神经递质、激素、脑网络和认知功能之间的关联。纳入了对毕生发展视角的考量，并且我们还研究了健康的社会关系和环境背景对积极情绪和情感调节的影响。实施积极情绪的神经生理过程是动态且可调节的，文中还讨论了改变脑功能模式并最终支持安康的冥想练习以及心流状态。本综述是“人类情感组计划”（http://neuroqualia.org/background.php）的一部分，为推进人类情感组计划的一个主要目标，我们还回顾了表征积极情绪和安康的相关语言维度及术语。这些语言维度在神经科学文献的背景下进行了讨论，总体目标是为推进关于积极情绪和安康的神经科学研究提出新颖的建议。
