felicidad, cultura, rankings de paises, fsQCAResumen
La felicidad de los países tiene importantes efectos en la imagen, prestigio, captación de
fondos o turismo de los mismos y se elaboran rakings y modelos que intentan explicar de
qué depende la misma. En este trabajo se explora la posibilidad de mejorar el modelo del
World Happiness Report mediante dos vías: la inclusión de variables culturales y el análisis de
posibles interacciones entre las variables. Para ello, se ha completado la base de datos original
con las dimensiones culturales del conocido modelo de Hofstede, replicando los análisis de
regresión originales y utilizando un analisis fsQCA. Los resultados muestran la necesidad de
incluir la cultura en este tipo de estudios y la existencia de tres modelos diferentes de países con
altas puntuaciones en felicidad.
