| Our classification | Involvement with household work, code H13.2.1 |
| Operationalization | During 24-hour period prior to the interview, respondents reported each activity they engaged in (PARTICIPATION) and the time spend on each activity (DURATION) on an activity diary. Activities were coded into categories, one of which was "activities related to obtaining goods and services" such as shopping. Work status was measured by self-labeling by respondents and a question about engagement in work for pay at present. Self-labeled housewives were excluded. |

| Our classification | Involvement with household work, code H13.2.1 |
| Operationalization | During 24-hour period prior to the interview, respondents reported each activity they engaged in (PARTICIPATION) and the time spend on each activity (DURATION) on an activity diary. Activities were coded into categories, one of which was "household activities" such as cooking, cleaning, gardening and repairs around the house. Work status was measured by self-labeling by respondents and a question about engagement in work for pay at present. Self-labeled housewives were excluded. |

| Symbol | Explanation |
| AoV | ANALYSIS of VARIANCE (ANOVA) Type: statistical procedure Measurement level: Correlate(s): nominal, Happiness: metric. In an ANOVA, the total happiness variability, expressed as the sum of squares, is split into two or more parts, each of which is assigned to a source of variability. At least one of those sources is the variability of the correlate, in case there is only one, and always one other is the residual variability, which includes all unspecified influences on the happiness variable. Each sum of squares has its own number of degrees of freedom (df), which sum up to Ne -1 for the total variability. If a sum of squares (SS) is divided by its own number of df, a mean square (MS) is obtained. The ratio of two correctly selected mean squares has an F-distribution under the hypothesis that the corresponding association has a zero-value. NOTE: A significantly high F-value only indicates that, in case of a single correlate, the largest of the c mean values is systematically larger than the smallest one. Conclusions about the other pairs of means require the application of a Multiple Comparisons Procedure (see e.g. BONFERRONI's MULTIPLE COMPARISON TEST, DUNCAN's MULTIPLE RANGE TEST or STUDENT-NEWMAN-KEULS) |
| B | REGRESSION COEFFICIENT (non-standardized) by LEAST SQUARES (OLS) Type: test statistic Measurement level: Correlate: metric, Happiness: metric Theoretical range: unlimited Meaning: B > 0 A higher correlate level corresponds with a higher happiness rating on average. B < 0 A higher correlate level corresponds with a higher happiness rating on average. B = 0 Not any correlation with the relevant correlate. |
| Beta | (ß) STANDARDIZED REGRESSION COEFFICIENT by LEAST SQUARES (OLS) Type: test statistic. Measurement level: Correlates: all metric, Happinessl: metric. Range: [-1 ; +1] Meaning: beta > 0 « a higher correlate level corresponds with a higher happiness rating on average. beta < 0 « a higher correlate level corresponds with a higher happiness rating on average. beta = 0 « no correlation. beta = + 1 or -1 « perfect correlation. |
| BMCT | BONFERRONI's MULTIPLE COMPARISON TEST Type: statistical procedure Measurement level: Correlate: nominal, Happiness: metric Meaning: if the correlate is measured at c levels, the c mean happiness values can be ranked from low to high. A multiple comparison procedure judges for each of the ½c(c-1) pairs whether or not they differ significantly. A convenient way to represent the results is by ranking the c means and by underlining them in such a way that means which have a common underlining do NOT differ significantly. When added by us, this test is performed at the 95% confidence level for all the differences together. |
| D% | DIFFERENCE in PERCENTAGES Type: descriptive statistic only. Measurement level: Correlate level: dichotomous, but nominal or ordinal theoretically possible as well. Happiness level: dichotomous Range: [-100; +100] Meaning: the difference of the percentages happy people at two correlate levels. |
| DM | DIFFERENCE of MEANS Type: descriptive statistic only. Measurement level: Correlate: dichotomous, Happiness: metric Range: depending on the happiness rating scale of the author; range symmetric about zero. Meaning: the difference of the mean happiness, as measured on the author's rating scale, between the two correlate levels. |
| DMa | DIFFERENCE IN ADJUSTED MEANS, See also Ma Computed in Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) or in multiple classification analysis (MCA) Seldom used in happiness research. See excerpted report for further reference. |
| DMt | DIFFERENCE of MEANS AFTER TRANSFORMATION Type: descriptive statistic only. Measurement level: Correlate: dichotomous, Happiness: metric Theoretical range: [-10; +10] Meaning: the difference of the mean happiness (happiness measured at a 0-10 rating scale) between the two correlate levels. |
| r | PRODUCT-MOMENT CORRELATION COEFFICIENT (Also "Pearson's correlation coefficient' or simply 'correlation coefficient') Type: test statistic. Measurement level: Correlate: metric, Happiness: metric Range: [-1; +1] Meaning: r = 0 « no correlation , r = 1 « perfect correlation, where high correlate values correspond with high happiness values, and r = -1 « perfect correlation, where high correlate values correspond with low happiness values. |
| Ra² | ADJUSTED COEFFICIENT OF MULTIPLE CORRELATION Type: descriptive statistic only Measurement level: Correlates: all metric, Happiness: metric Range: [0 ; 1] Meaning: Ra = 0 « not any association Ra = 1 « strongest possible association |
