It begins with a critical review of literature by examining the concepts of quality of life and well-being that are treated as synonymous by the author. The scientific literature is characterized by conceptual confusion, consequently a multitude of misinterpretations can be observed in the empirical research of quality of life and well-being. To overcome this, several \u2018solutions\u2019 have emerged in the international literature and in the practice of international organizations (OECD, EU, UN). However, each has been confronted not only with the question of what is the difference between \u2018subjective\u2019 and \u2018objective\u2019 as well as \u2018social\u2019 and \u2018individual\u2019 well-being but also with the international cultural context. There has long been a general agreement that economic indicators do not give good prediction of people\u2019s well-being but there is no consensus on what dimensions \u2018beyond GDP\u2019 and what measures would be appropriate. This suggests that there is currently no paradigm by which conceptual and methodological difficulties could be (at least partly) eliminated. The study attempts to outline a new model for studying well-being (quality of life).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong>: quality of life, well-being, methodology, social and economic inequalities, social policy, culture<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The article is available <a href=\"http:\/\/archive.iask.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2002\/07\/statisztikai_szemle_2020-11_kulcsar.pdf\">HERE<\/a> in Hungarian.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"teammember-single\"><div class=\"photo\"><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.iask.hu\/en\/people\/laszlo-kulcsar\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.iask.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kulcsar-laszlo-prof-emeritus-sopron-egyetem-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.iask.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kulcsar-laszlo-prof-emeritus-sopron-egyetem-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/archive.iask.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kulcsar-laszlo-prof-emeritus-sopron-egyetem-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.iask.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kulcsar-laszlo-prof-emeritus-sopron-egyetem-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/archive.iask.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kulcsar-laszlo-prof-emeritus-sopron-egyetem-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/archive.iask.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kulcsar-laszlo-prof-emeritus-sopron-egyetem.jpg 511w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"name\"><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.iask.hu\/en\/people\/laszlo-kulcsar\/\">L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Kulcs\u00e1r <\/a><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A brand new article was released in Hungarian Statistical Review written by L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Kulcs\u00e1r.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":209,"featured_media":20285,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[58,238,40],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.7 -
