A growing body of research has found that some regions such as mountains and water have a higher concentration of negative air ions, which influence serontonin and cyclic adenosine monosphate levels and apparently affect mood and alertness. Similarly too, although a high-carbohydrate, low-protein meal decreases alertness by raising brain trytophan, a protein-rich meal, reverses the effect. Eating pure tyrosine - such as yogurt and turkey (!) – will raise brain tyropsine levels and increase cognitive alertness (Orenstein & Swencionis, 1990). Regarding environmental stressors, laboratory experiments have consistently shown that when participants reason about emotional contents, they are less likely to provide normatively correct answers in deductive-reasoning tasks (Blanchette, Melnyk, Richards, & Lavda, 2007). The aim of the present study will be to examine the effect of four such variables on affect (i.e. happiness), to evaluate whether or not any of them will positively impact happiness, defined as elevation in mood, and if so to which extent and in which way. The variables I selected were: rope jumping (exercise), yogurt (pure tyrosine food), prior study in a place with mountains and water (containing negative ions), and manipulation of a then-felt emotional stressor.
