The book contributes to the vast field of research in psychometrics as well as to the growing field of positive psychology. It analyses the development and validation of several constructs of positive psychology like resilience, flow, mindfulness, spirituality, and intrapersonal and interpersonal strengths. The chapters discuss the test construction process and develop scales for constructs that are validated on the Indian population. In most Indian behavioral research, psychological tests from the West are employed without assessing psychometric properties in India. However, establishing validation of psychological tests in a new culture is necessary in order to claim results based on these tests. Hence, this book bridges this gap in positive psychology and its allied fields and develops and standardizes these scales for the Indian population. The new constructed and validated scales have undergone rigorous statistical screening. Psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers interested in studying well-being in India and in understanding how to create psychometric scales for non-Western populations will find the book useful for their research.

This edited volume reimagines psychological science through Indian cultural, philosophical, and spiritual traditions, responding to growing concerns about the dominance of Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic (WEIRD) paradigms in mainstream psychology. Questioning universalist assumptions and imposed etics, the volume advances a context-sensitive, bottom-up approach that takes culture and lived experience seriously in the study of well-being, resilience, and flourishing.Grounded in Indigenous Psychology and contemporary positive psychology, the book integrates Indian constructs such as anāsakti (non-attachment), samatva (equanimity). ānanda (bliss), and related ideas from yoga, Vedānta, Buddhism, and the Bhagavad Gita with empirical rigor. It brings together mixed-method research, narrative inquiry, and culturally valid psychometric research to demonstrate how indigenous epistemologies can coexist with scientific standards of reliability and validity.Drawing on contributions presented at the 3rd International Conference on Positive Psychology, India, the volume is organized into three thematic sections: philosophical foundations and indigenous constructs; culturally grounded interventions and practices for well-being; and emerging empirical insights from Indian populations. Chapters engage with themes including quiet ego, wellbeing literacy, yoga-based self-regulation, mindfulness, nature connectedness, social-emotional learning, resilience in adversity, and the development and adaptation of psychological measures for Indian contexts.The volume also addresses contemporary challenges facing psychology in India, such as mental health innovation, culturally responsive assessment, ethical research practice, and the need for interdisciplinary collaboration across psychology, education, health, and indigenous knowledge systems. By situating individual well-being within social, ecological, and cultural systems, the book moves beyond narrow individualism toward more inclusive models of psychological functioning.By bridging ancient wisdom with modern methodologies, this volume offers a coherent framework for culturally grounded theory, research, and practice. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars, graduate students, mental health professionals, educators, and policymakers seeking approaches that expand psychological science while remaining ethically and culturally attuned - both within India and in the global context.
