It's hard to be mistaken about how happy you are at the precise moment you're asked the question (you might have trouble reporting exactly how happy you are, but that's different). However, if you want to know how happy you've been over the past month, for example, it's possible to be wrong about that; you could be selectively remembering times you were more or less happy than average.
True. Still, the method of measuring serotonin and dopamine levels would offer no benefit over a self-evaluation, since you can't implement it retroactively.
