We offer and test a simple operationalization of hedonic and eudaimonic well-being (?happiness?) as mediating variables that link outcomes to motivation. In six evolutionary agent-based simulation experiments, we compared the relative performance of agents endowed with different combinations of happiness-related traits (parameter values), under four types of environmental conditions. We found (i) that the effects of attaching more weight to longer-term than to momentary happiness and of extending the memory for past happiness are both stronger in an environment where food is scarce; (ii) that in such an environment ?relative consumption,? in which the agent?s well-being is negatively affected by that of its neighbors, is more detrimental to survival when food is scarce; and (iii) that having a positive outlook, under which agents? longer-term happiness is increased by positive events more than it is decreased by negative ones, is generally advantageous.
