==== Cultural sensitivity  ====
The concept of cultural sensitivity is crucial for positive psychology, yet it has faced criticism for insufficient consideration of cultural contexts. Positive psychology's principles, such as subjective well-being and character strengths, may not universally apply or be valued equally across all cultures. For instance, in collectivist cultures, individuals prioritize collective well-being over individual happiness, and thus, frameworks like the PERMA model may need adaptation to reflect these values. Additionally, there is a call for more cross-cultural research to validate the applicability of positive psychology interventions globally and to integrate culturally relevant practices and perspectives.<ref name="Lomas 60–77">{{cite journal |last1=Lomas |first1=Tim |title=Positive cross-cultural psychology: Exploring similarity and difference in constructions and experiences of wellbeing |journal=International Journal of Wellbeing |date=17 December 2015 |volume=5 |issue=4 |pages=60–77 |doi=10.5502/ijw.v5i4.437 }}</ref>
