Quantifying happiness isn't an easy task. Researchers at the Gallup World Poll went about it by surveying thousands of respondents in 155 countries, between 2005 and 2009, in order to measure two types of well-being.

First they asked subjects to reflect on their overall satisfaction with their lives, and ranked their answers using a "life evaluation" score from 1 to 10. Then they asked questions about how each subject had felt the previous day. Those answers allowed researchers to score their "daily experiences"things like whether they felt well-rested, respected, free of pain and intellectually engaged. Subjects that reported high scores were considered "thriving." The percentage of thriving individuals in each country determined our rankings.  

조사의 핵심은 100명을 기준으로 본인의 삶에 대하여 well-being의 관점에서 만족도를 조사한 것으로 분류 기준은 아래와 같습니다.

 1. 충분히 누린다.

 2. 그럭 저럭 하루 하루 산다.

 3. 힘들게 살아가고 있다

캐나다의 경우 대답한 100명 중의 비율이 62:36:2 으로 총 8위를 차지하였으며 이에 반해서 대한민국은 28:62:12 응답으로 58위 입니다.
