"Does well-being measurement enhance well-being?"

Abstract: GDP per capita (growth) remains the dominant target in government decision making. This may be shifting however, as in recent years the majority of OECD countries have adopted frameworks to monitor multidimensional well-being in a systematic and comprehensive way. Does this increase in well-being monitoring translate into greater well-being? We find there was no effect on aggregate subjective well-being (SWB) in 30 OECD countries over the period 2006 to 2023, using staggered difference-in-difference techniques. Additional subjective and ‘objective’ well-being outcomes were likewise not affected, such as, SWB inequality, the Human Development Index, and Social Progress Index. The results are not surprising in light of additional evidence that numerous likely channels were not affected, e.g., quality of government and composition of government expenditures. Well-being monitoring alone is not sufficient to improve subjective well-being.
