Why not? For decades, he has been telling parents to focus on the develoment of 
emotional intelligence in their children. For example, in 1997, he passed on 
the advice of his mentor, Haim Ginott:”You want to raise a mensch who is a 
strong person” (See: 
http://www.jweekly.com/article/full/5847/do-you-want-to-raise-a-mensch-psychology-researcher-tells-how/
 )  I’m not sure that positive psychology is equivalent to “menschian 
psychology,” but the two would seem to have similarities.
