Description of Presentation:

Many people engage in life (work, relationships, hobbies) in different ways. Some feel obligation, some just feel drawn to it from deep inside like a life’s mission or passion, and others feel more addicted to their hobbies/work (i.e. workaholic or gambling). Depending on how one approaches life, the outcome can be advantageous or lead to burnout. The presentation will introduce the research behind the Dualistic Model of Passion (DMP) created by Vallerand; DMP looks at the “why and how” people engage in their pursuits and passions. DMP research finds that people engage in passions in usually two ways: A Harmoniously Passionate or an Obsessively Passionate way. This presentation will explore the DMP research and the several outcomes of each approach. Although the research has not been studied with the eating disorder population, the implications of DMP research will be applied to eating disorder work in this presentation.

Learning Objectives:

1. Participants will be able to describe what Harmonious Passion is.

3. Participants will be able to list positive outcomes from using a Harmonious approach to activities and relationships.
