Quality of Life and Social Cohesion. Defining and Measuring Subjective Aspects

Defining subjective indicators of wellbeing is always a demanding exercise, especially because it needs to deal with a complex state, like wellbeing. In defining indicators, different aspects should be considered: (i) Nature of the reality, (ii) Dimensionality, (iii) Levels of observation, (iv) Life domains, (v) Dynamics, (vi) Resources or results, (vii) Need of making and investigating relative, (viii) Avoiding over-reductionism, (ix) Identifying benchmark.
