Yet, suitable measures for assessing how well-being is changing over time or compares across countries are lacking. This problem is, of course, not new and standard economic theory has provided, over the years, a range of insights about the criteria and domains that are most critical for the measurement of well-being, and on the relation between well-being and measures of economic resources. This paper does not revisit this theoretical discussion, nor does it provide a comprehensive review of different approaches to the measurement of well-being. It rather assesses whether GDP per capita is an adequate proxy as a measure of well-being or whether other indicators - used either as substitutes or as complements to GDP per capita - are more suitable for that purpose. Attention is limited to only some of the factors that influence well-being, and excludes some critical elements such as the environment, home production and other non-market factors. 410 0$aOECD social, employment, and migration working papers ;$vNo. 33. 606 $aEconomic indicators 615 0$aEconomic indicators. 676 $a330.015195 700 $aBoarini$b Romina$01287172 702 $aJohansson$b A?sa 702 $aMira D'Ercole$b Marco 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aDOCUMENT 912 $a9910138328003321 996 $aAlternative Measures of Well-Being$93020070 997 $aUNINA
