[Indices] [CPI] [BTI] [HDI] [HPI] [SLI] [Sex. Toleranz]

The Satisfaction with Life Index was created by Adrian White, an Analytic Social Psychologist at the University of Leicester.
This index is based on data published as part of the Happy Planet Index by the New Economics Foundation, which in turn is based on data from the 2003 UN Human Development Report, GDP information from the CIA and access to secondary education information from UNESCO.
This study also shows the correlations between happiness and health, closely followed by wealth, and access to basic education.
