That said, there may be a number of elements of achievement that may make finding a state of personal contentment easier: a strong family unit, a strong local community, and satisfaction of life's basic needs as perhaps expressed in Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Happiness or contentment was never viewed as an isolated state from physical health. Other research indicates a substantial portion of Scandinavians exaggerate their sense of happiness or contentment when asked informally or in surveys, due to social prohibitions against expressing negativity or unhappiness.[21]	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-2451.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-2451.txt
