One way is to use survey-based welfare indicators such as the OECD Better Life Index. It invites people to weight a variety of quality of life indicators according to their individual preferences. 11 broad dimensions aggregate these indicators. Our experiment shows that people do not provide consistent ratings across differently labelled dimensions that embed the same indicators. They also do not adjust the rating of equally named dimensions changing sets of indicators. These results show that survey-based measures might suffer from strong embedding effects and, as a result, may fail to measure citizens’ true preferences for the indicators.","31 Seiten","https://refubium.fu-berlin.de/handle/fub188/22055||http://dx.doi.org/10.17169/refubium-25259","eng","urn:nbn:de:kobv:188-fudocsseries000000000720-9||urn:nbn:de:kobv:188-fudocsseries000000000006-7","http://www.fu-berlin.de/sites/refubium/rechtliches/Nutzungsbedingungen","Beyond GDP||welfare measurement||survey-based welfare indicators||OECD Better Life Index||embedding effect","300 Sozialwissenschaften::330 Wirtschaft||300 Sozialwissenschaften::330 Wirtschaft::336 Öffentliche Finanzen","Embedding as a pitfall for survey-based welfare indicators","Evidence from an Experiment","Buch","open access","Wirtschaftswissenschaft","FUDOCS_derivate_000000007947","FUDOCS_document_000000026698","2017,8 : Economics","Diskussionsbeiträge des Fachbereichs Wirtschaftswissenschaft der Freien Universität Berlin"
