The World Happiness Report 2017‘s Figure 2.1 charts population-weighted distributions of happiness for various world regions, where ‘happiness’ is self-reported happiness on a 0-10 scale.
In every world region there are respondents who report 10/10; I’ve always been interested in these people (who are they? What can I learn about them regarding the other factors examined in the World Happiness Reports, from GDP per capita to healthy life expectancy to social support to generosity to perceptions of corruption to freedom to make life choices? What can I calculate? etc)
Unfortunately the accompanying dataset linked for Figure 2.1 doesn’t break down the data more granularly, it only reports the summarized chart values. Do any of you know of a more granular breakdown? The precise year (2017) and charts (Figure 2.1) don’t really matter to me; I really just want to see the data for the other factors corresponding to these self-reported happiness = 10/10 people. Thanks 🙂
