THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

State of concentration and engagement that can be achieved when

completing a task that challenges one's skills. An experience

that is so enjoyable should lead to

positive affect and happiness in the long run.The theory was

formulated when Csikszentmihalyi interviewed dozens of experts,

from composers and artists to tradesmen and chefs. He found that

many of them, despite working in different fields or coming from

different cultures, explained a similar concept. Many mentioned a

sense of complete absorption in their task, ignoring things such

as hunger, thirst, or sleep. They also remarked that time became

irrelevant, feeling like only a few minutes had passed when

they'd been engaged in an activity for hours. Finally, the

interviewees also took great pleasure in the activity they were

engaged in, often describing feelings of spontaneous waves of joy

and satisfaction. The study used the Flow Theory. States that

addiction is form of enjoyment. In positive psychology, a flow

state, also known casual as being in the zone, is the mental

state of operation in which a person performing an activity is

fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement,

and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In essence, flow is

characterized by complete absorption in what one does, and a

resulting loss in one's sense of space and time. Study predict on

what are the effect happen to the respondents.
