Research Abstract |
In this study, we analyzed the growth and development of unified Germany using multidimensional well-being as evaluation criteria of economic policy and economic development. Our dataset was the German Socioeconomic Panel (GSOEP). We performed a factor analysis using attributes of those surveyed in the panel (gender, age, education level, area of residence,etc.), economic activity, housing, health, leisure, and social participation as independent variables, and we also performed cohort analysis, ordered regression and path analysis using multidimensional well-being as the dependent variable. Our analysis yielded many new insights into the determinants of multidimensional well-being, its distribution, and how it changes over time.
