LOOKING BEYOND GDP
When we juxtapose GDP per capita with happiness scores
from the report, it becomes clear that while GDP per capita is a significant

other variables, such as social support, life expectancy, freedom, generosity,
and the absence of corruption, also help explain varying levels of happiness
between countries.
