Happiness Across Nations. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, April 2009, Pages: 92
This study attempts to determine what makes people
happy using information provided by
the World Values Survey augmented by several country-
level datasets. To solve methodological problems
evident in previous work a random
coefficient multilevel model is employed to
account for the fact that individuals are nested
within countries.
People who feel unfree in free
countries feel less happy than those who feel unfree
in unfree countries. East Europeans
feel less free and less satis?ed with their lives
than other nationals, but a personal feeling of
freedom increases their life satisfaction at a
higher rate. Blue collar workers feel less happy
than other occupational groups, and people living in
larger cities feel less happy than people
living in smaller towns.
