Subjective Welfare, Isolation, and Relative Consumption (2008, background): “Inter-country comparisons have further shown that di¤entials in subjective well-being across countries are not commensurate to di¤erentials in GDP per head, especially at higher levels of income (Inglehart & Klingemann 2000).”
The Subjective Well-Being of the Homeless, and Lessons for Happiness (2006, background): “…that although correlations between income and subjective well-being are often modest, there appears to be a curvilinear relationship in which money has the ROBERT BISWAS-DIENER AND ED DIENER186 greatest impact on psychological health at the lowest economic levels (Inglehart and Klingemann, 2000).”
Happiness and Life Satisfaction in Advanced European Countries (2004, methodology): “Inglehart and Klingemann (2000) computed an average of survey results for happiness and satisfaction, and although Lane (2000) theoretically tries to distinguish between the two concepts, he does not use the 362 Cross-Cultural Research / November 2004 distinction in his actual research.”
Predictors of Differences in Subjective Well-Being Across 97 Nations (2009, background): “Inglehart and Klingemann (2000) believe that a historical legacy of communist rule explains the low SWB of eastern europe, whereas the legacy of Protestantism may have something to do with the high SWB of the english and Scandinavian countries.”
Personality, culture, and subjective well-being: emotional and cognitive evaluations of life. (2003, background): “…in Mean Levels of Subjective Well-Being Between Nations Many of the findings on culture and SWB parallel the conclusions on personality and SWB. International surveys of life satisfaction show consistent mean level differences across nations (e.g., Inglehart & Klingemann 2000, Veenhoven 1993).”
Cognitive, affective and contextual predictors of subjective wellbeing (2012, methodology): “…(Helliwell, Barrington-Leigh, Harris, & Huang, 2009; Lucas, Clark, Georgellis, & Diener, 2004); and c) when systematic differences in SWB are observed between poor and rich countries, showing the poorer countries as the least happy in the world (Farid & Lazarus, 2008; Inglehart & Klingemann, 2000).”
Universal Intracultural and Intercultural Dimensions of the Recalled Frequency of Emotional Experience (2006, methodology): “First, satisfaction with life has been used as a nation-level variable reflecting the emotional climate of a nation (e.g., Inglehart & Klingemann, 2000).”
Social Capital and Subjective Wellbeing in Europe: A New Approach on Social Capital (2012, unknown): “…on social capital tend to focus on one or another of these dimensions but rarely consider all dimensions together,3 with measures of generalized social trust being one of the most frequently used variables in the empirical literature on social capital (Inglehart and Klingemann 2000; Uslaner 2002).”
Direct democracy and life satisfaction revisited: new evidence for Switzerland (2008, background): “All empirical studies by Stutzer and Frey are based on a cross-section of approximately 6,000 households from a 1992 dataset collected by Leu et al. (1997) that is a representative sample of the Swiss population.”
Beyond the hedonic treadmill: revising the adaptation theory of well-being. (2006, background): “However, work by Lucas, Diener, and Suh (1996) indicates that the global category of happiness is composed of separable well-being variables.”
