An Updated Assessment of the OECD’s Quality of Life Index

Metody indeksowania danych w celu zmierzenia poziomu jakości życia są rozwijane przez wiele krajów i organizacji. Prawdopodobnie najbardziej obszernym z tych indeksów jest Better Life Index, opracowany przez OECD. W przypadku tego artykułu dane odnoszą się do 36 krajów, z których 34 należy do OECD, a pochodzą one z OECD Life Index z 2017 r. Poziomy dobrostanu w poszczególnych krajach zestawiono z 11 kryteriami określonymi przez OECD. Przeprowadzono analizy korelacji i regresji, aby wykazać powiązania pomiędzy kryteriami OECD Life i aby określić ich zakres. Umożliwiło to wykazanie w jakim zakresie kryteria indeksowania, w szczególności kryterium bezpieczeństwa, wpływają na jakość życia społecznego. Z ogólnej perspektywy można dostrzec istnienie znaczącego i pozytywnego związku pomiędzy kryterium bezpieczeństwa a innymi parametrami. Jednocześnie zauważono występowanie zależności negatywnej pomiędzy bezpieczeństwem a kryterium zadowolenia. Uwarunkowane jest to istnieniem pewnego poziomu progowego, powyżej którego jednostka nie będzie miała pozytywnego nastawienia do ingerowania w przestrzeń życiową.
