Relative influences from multivariate tree boosting. The relative influences are the sum of squared reductions in error attributable to splits on that predictor. They are reported as a percent of the total reduction in sums of squares for each well-being subscale. Control of internal states is important across well-being subscales. Control of internal states also has the single biggest contribution of any predictor, with a large effect for autonomy. Loneliness, stress – problems, ego resilience, and social support from friends are also important to aspects well-being.
