我们也呼吁各国政府定期收集基于调查的自我报告幸福感指标,并呼吁研究人员对这些指标进行研究。我们列出了一些必须克服的挑战,以使这些措施最终达到与传统经济指标相竞争的地位。我们更详细地讨论了挑战之一,全面性:单一问题的幸福措施似乎并没有完全抓住人们关心的问题。我们简要回顾了现有的证据,表明调查受访者,当被要求作出真实的或假设的权衡,并不总是选择最大限度地提高他们的预测响应单问题的幸福措施。这些偏差似乎是系统性的,而且在其他解释不太可信的情况下仍然存在。我们还审查了一种方法,将单一问题的措施结合成一个更全面的幸福指数-一种方法,本身并不是免费的持续的理论和实施的挑战,但我们认为是一个有前途的方向。
We join the call for governments to routinely collect survey-based measures of self-reported wellbeing and for researchers to study them. We list a number of challenges that have to be overcome in order for these measures to eventually achieve a status that is competitive with traditional economic indicators. We discuss in more detail one of the challenges, comprehensiveness: single-question wellbeing measures do not seem to fully capture what people care about. We briefly review the existing evidence, suggesting that survey respondents, when asked to make real or hypothetical trade-offs, would not always choose to maximize their predicted response to single-question wellbeing measures. The deviations appear systematic, and they persist under conditions where alternative explanations are less plausible. We also review an approach for combining single-question measures into a more comprehensive wellbeing index – an approach that itself is not free of ongoing theoretical and implementational challenges, but that we view as a promising direction.
