Etymology of Positive – History and Definitions of Positive
early 14c., originally a legal term meaning “formally laid down, decreed or legislated by authority” (opposed to natural), from Old French positif (13c.) and directly from Latin positivus “settled by agreement, positive” (opposed to naturalis “natural”), from positus, past participle of ponere “put, place” (see position (n.)).
The sense of “absolute” is from mid-15c. Meaning in philosophy of “dealing only with facts” is from 1590s. Sense broadened to “expressed without qualification” (1590s), then, of persons, “confident in opinion” (1660s). The meaning “possessing definite characters of its own” is by 1610s. The mathematical use for “greater than zero” is by 1704. Psychological sense of “concentrating on what is constructive and good” is recorded from 1916. Positive thinking is attested from 1953. The sense in electricity is from 1755. https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=positive&utm_campaign=sd&utm_medium=serp&utm_source=ds_search
