摘要

在本文中，我们提供了一个衡量个人多维幸福的框架，并讨论了测量多维幸福不平等的两种方法。该框架被用于研究过去十年美国多维幸福的不平等。利用当前人口调查的三个幸福指标，即收入、健康和教育的数据，我们首先为样本中的每个人计算一个多维幸福指数，然后研究由此获得的幸福不平等。我们发现，福祉不平等在2010年至2014年期间有所增加，在2014年至2019年期间有所减少。我们通过使用不平等的替代措施和附加幸福感指标的替代权重来测试我们结果的敏感性。

Inequality in multidimensional well-being in the United States

In this paper we provide a framework to measure an individual's multidimensional well-being and discuss two approaches to measuring inequality in multidimensional well-being. The framework is used to study inequality in multidimensional well-being in the United States in the last decade. Using data from the Current Population Survey on three well-being indicators, namely, income, health, and education, we first compute a multidimensional well-being index for every individual in the sample and then study inequality of well-being thus obtained. We find that inequality in well-being increased between 2010 and 2014 and decreased between 2014 and 2019. We test the sensitivity of our results by using alternative measures of inequality and attaching alternative weights to well-being indicators.
