Report on Life satisfaction and Happiness....

  • General Description and Summary

Selection of X matrix and Y vector. X matrix defines-”What factors contributes to the maximum change if there is a change in happiness” Y matrix defines- “How to measure the happiness of people”-World Happiness report 2016 . The variable definition for the calculation of happiness is based on based on block assumption rather than individual categorization.

  • Prediction Goals Some questions which I want to get answers to...??? for eg..
  • Answers to happiness and life satisfaction correlated with health
  • Whether finance plays an important or unimportant role after some basic needs are fulfilled.
  • whether doubling of salary makes a lot less difference than life events like marriage or unemployment.
  • whether Expenditures in military/armed forces are probably related to war zones

Is Unemployment is the most important aspect If yes then for which sex , community ,people, etc ..eg.Male and female

And last but not the least I also want to check if PLSR and PCR stand with the same decision.
