How is human well being measured?

Human well-being is typically measured using a combination of subjective and objective indicators. Subjective measures include self-reported assessments of life satisfaction, happiness, and mental health, often gathered through surveys. Objective measures may involve economic indicators like income, health metrics such as life expectancy, and access to education and basic services. Comprehensive approaches often combine these indicators to provide a holistic view of well-being, such as the Human Development Index (HDI) or the World Happiness Report.
