19 Technical details. Happiness assessed by means of surveys in general public samples. This list is based on standard surveys that used the same question over the years.. The trend lines in this report are based on slightly different questions: In the EU nations, happiness was assessed by a single item on life satisfaction: "How satisfied are you with the life you lead? o Very satisfied () o Fairly satisfied () o Not very satisfied () o Not at all satisfied () This question is categorized as type B, subtype O-SLL/u/sq/v//b. In Japan a similar question on life-satisfaction was used: On the whole, are you with the life you lead? o Fully satisfied () o Not fully, but to some extent satisfied () o As yet unsatisfied () o Very dissatisfied () This question is categorized as O-SLL/u/sq/v//. Three slightly different variants have been used: in - version a, - version e and - also version f. Since the question O-SLW/c/sq/v//e is used. Since, the following question has also been used in Japan Overall, how satisfied are you with your present life? o Very satisfied () o Fairly satisfied () o Neither satisfied nor dissatisfied () o Fairly dissatisfied () o Very dissatisfied () This question is categorized as O-SLW/u/sq/v/ and has also been used in slightly different variants (a, g. k, l). In the USA happiness has been assessed with several slightly different questions about happiness, type A. The most commonly used question is: Taken all together, how would you say things are these days? Would you say you are.: o Very happy () o Pretty happy () o Not too happy () This question is categorized as sub-type O-HL/c/sq/v//aa. World Database of Happiness Happiness in Nations Trend Report -

20 In the USA happiness has also been assessed by means of three other types of questions: o -step life satisfaction, code: O-SLP/g/v//b o -step happiness, several variants code O-HL/../sq/v// o -step best-worst possible life, code: O-BW/c/sq/l//a These questions and the observed trend in the responses are mentioned in a separate table below the graph of the trend in -step happiness in the USA. The full text of the above items can be found in the item bank. The original scores on these questions were transformed to a comparable - scale. Section /.. of the introductory text provides more detail about the classification of items and transformation of scores. Mean scores were taken from the country tables of this catalog of distributional findings on happiness in nations When happiness was assessed more than once in a year in a country, the average of the mean scores is used. The variables used here are also described in the codebook of the data file Trend in nations, variable list mean happiness. The average annual change is expressed in a regression coefficient that stands for the size of the slope of the linear regression line trough the dots (averages) in the time charts. A positive coefficient denotes an average increase in average happiness, and a negative coefficient a decline. A regression coefficient of +. means. point increase on this - happiness scale per year, which implies that a one point rise of happiness would take one hundred years at this pace of change.. The observed regression coefficient is based on a sample of assessments of happiness during this era and the coefficient in this sample may differ from the true coefficient. The confidence interval gives an estimated range in which this true coefficient is likely to be included with % probability.. This report restricts to time series of years at least.. The data are recorded in the SPSS file Trends in Nations, which is available on request. World Database of Happiness Happiness in Nations Trend Report -
