Table 2.
Average correlation across countries of LS and LE with flourishing domains (N = 197,036)
| Flourishing domain | Life satisfaction | Life evaluation |
|---|---|---|
| Happiness* | 0.71 (0.04) | 0.59 (0.04) |
| Physical & Mental Health | 0.46 (0.03) | 0.38 (0.03) |

Note. Reported estimates are the average correlation across countries of LS/LE with the indicators in each flourishing domain
LS, life satisfaction; LE, life evaluation
Omnibus Bernoulli test of proportions to test the H0: pLE= pLS; pLE, proportion of countries where the average correlation of LE is greater than the average correlation of LS with the items within the flourishing domain; pLS, proportion of countries where the average correlation of LS is greater than the average correlation of LE with the items within the flourishing domain
χ2(df = 1) = 65.5; p = 5.74e-16
*The happiness domain comprises only a single item since LS is removed from it
