PRISMA FRAMEWORK SYSTEMATIC REVIEW OF TECHNOLOGY-DRIVEN POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY TO ENHANCE EMPLOYEE WELL-BEING AND PERFORMANCE

The convergence of Human Resource (HR) technology and positive psychology has emerged as a strategic pathway to enhancing employee engagement, well-being, and organizational performance. This PRISMA-guided systematic review synthesizes findings from forty-seven peer-reviewed studies (2021–2025) across Asia, Europe, and the United States, examining how Artificial Intelligence (AI), Virtual Reality (VR), and other digital interventions are transforming HR practices through the lens of optimism, resilience, emotional intelligence, and efficacy. This study proposes the Technology-Enhanced Well-Being Framework (TEWF), which integrates affordance theory, Self-Determination Theory (SDT), and PERMA to explain how digital HR affordances support or hinder autonomy, competence, and relatedness ultimately shaping employee motivation and performance. The review develops a thematic taxonomy of AI-enabled HR interventions and uncovers non-linear, context-dependent effects moderated by privacy, explainability, digital literacy, and regulation. Ethical considerations such as AI bias and data privacy are critically discussed. Finally, this paper provides a decision framework for HR leaders to adopt technology-driven positive psychology strategies in their organizations.
