Associations of country-level economic and gender equality indicators with average hedonia and eudaemonia.

Fig. 3: Country-level associations of economic indicators (GDP per capita and Gini) and gender equality indicators (GII, GSNI, and GGGI) with average standardised hedonia (c1-5) and eudaemonia (d1-5) for females and males and coloured by region. The GII, GSNI and Gini scales are reversed so that all x-axis run from less equal to more equal. The psychological distress scale is reversed so that a negative relationship indicates worse mental health across all outcomes. A larger distance between the regression lines indicates a larger gender gap. Abbreviations: Gini = income inequality, GII = gender inequality index, GSNI = gender social norms index, GGGI = global gender gap index.
