In the following I publish the slides for the fourth meeting. The session was given to a discussion of the memory - a store of our past experiences that we rely rather heavily in forming our perceptions of the environment around us. A brief discussion of Kahneman's idea of the experiencing and remembering selves is included. Also included are the results of some surveys about how happy people feel leading to a discussion of illusory superiority bias.
UPDATE (26 March 2024): University of Bristol has offered, since 2019 a course on 'The Science of Happiness'. Their experience is interesting - students feel happier towards the end of the course, but most return back to the level of life satisfaction they experienced before the course - Regression to the Mean.
