This study explored the effects of participation in a positive psychology program on older adults' depression at a community day care center. This pre-experimental study was conducted between October 2018 and December 2018 with nine participants who were aged over 65 years. Following a qualitative research methodology, semistructured interviews were conducted and supplemented by participant observation. All participants joined a positive psychology program for 8 weeks with each session lasting 3 hours. The participants completed the geriatric depression scale before and after the experiment. Subsequent individual semistructured interviews with the participants were used to explore their group experiences. The participants' geriatric depression pretest scores before and after the group sessions differed significantly. Analysis of the interviews revealed that the positive psychology program substantially improved the participants' mental health. Outcomes included positive psychological enhancement, a renewed focus in life, reduced negative thoughts, increased self-efficacy, and meaningful new insights for life. The positive psychology program was beneficial for the mental health of the participants. Its application in a wide range of care interventions for older adults should be further studied.
