Hypotheses, methods, and results

When measured objectively, however, by diagnosed physical conditions and performance, the health of Danes is mediocre. Welfare state —Cross national studies show that a prosperous economy and a well functioning democracy are associated with a high level of wellbeing, 3 7 although longitudinal studies of life satisfaction do not indicate any stable changes as a result of a higher income. Virtually all historically Protestant societies show relatively high levels of subjective wellbeing.

This would explain the high plateau of life satisfaction in Denmark after figure.

Other research supports the plausibility of explanations of this kind. For instance, it has been shown in England that stock market prices are positively linked to the performance of English national football teams John Whitfield, Football results kick share prices, Nature News , and death rates from cardiovascular diseases rise among men when a local team loses at home or the national team participates in the European Football championships' play-off.

Additional Product Data

The satisfaction of the Danes, however, began well before , albeit at a more moderate level. The key factor that explains this and that differentiates Danes from Swedes and Finns seems to be that Danes have consistently low and indubitably realistic expectations for the year to come. Year after year they are pleasantly surprised to find that not everything is getting more rotten in the state of Denmark. This finding is supported by Danish news coverage of the pronouncement by Ruut Veenhoven, Dutch Professor of Social Conditions for Happiness and head of the World Database of Happiness, that Danes are the world's happiest people.

The headlines in Denmark ran: In this humbug-bloated holiday season, with an undoubtedly disappointing New Year approaching, we do not wish to foster false hopes.
