美国研究：比朋友赚钱多可提升幸福感
http://www.sina.com.cn 2010年12月16日 10:07 环球时报According to the Daily Mail on December 14, a study of life satisfaction- made by the University of Southern California in 37 countries -shows that economic growth doesn't bring with it a corresponding long-term rise in happiness。
It found that while people may feel more positive in the short-term, the shine quickly wears off. Many people in most countries think that money doesn't buy happiness, unless you earn more of it than your friends. And, within an individual country, the rich are happier than the poor。
The theory was first coined in the 1970s by US researcher Richard Easterlin and became known as the Easterlin Paradox。
With several recent studies challenging his conclusions, Professor Easterlin set out to see if the pattern still exists。
据英国《每日邮报》12月14日报道，南加利福尼亚大学针对全球37个国家进行一项"生活满意度"调查，结果显示，经济增长并不能给人们带去相应长时间的幸福感。
调查发现，(随着经济增长，)人们在短时间内会感到幸福，但是，这种感觉很快就会消减。大多数国家的人们认为金钱并不能给他们带来幸福感，除非你赚的比朋友多。只有一个国家的人们认为，富人比穷人更幸福。
该理论是在上个世纪70年代被美国研究人家理查德•伊斯特林所创立，就是著名的"伊斯特林幸福悖论"。
最近有几项研究正在挑战他的结论，所以伊斯特林教授进行此次调查来证明这一理论在当前社会的适用性。
