It also guarantees that the index has less missing values than overallhappiness. We confine ourselves to simple bivariate analyses, which allow a first assessment of the external validity of the life satisfaction index and overallhappiness. This variable will be called overallhappiness below. As our life satisfaction index is an unweighted mean of 5-point scales, it has the same range as overallhappiness. Thus, for example, the association between the concept of a person's welfare and what contributes to his overallhappiness is very strong. If we rely on overallhappiness, however, we arrive at a different conclusion. The number of missing values of overallhappiness is quite low; the number of missing values of the index is quite high. It will therefore improve the chances of overallhappiness to win the competition with the index. The structure of the correlations with overallhappiness is almost the same. We succeed at causing our victim to suffer but doing so increases overallhappiness. What we do not find are empirically grounded claims about the effects of certain character traits on overallhappiness in specific environments. Again the correlation with the index (0.27) is much higher than the correlation with overallhappiness (0.10). While the life satisfaction index displays a correlation of 0.46, overallhappiness correlates with 0.32 only. Suppose that blind charity is intrinsically good but lowers overallhappiness. Even more plausibly, it could be that blind charity lowers overallhappiness in virtually any society because it leads people to be insufficiently wary of dangerous criminals and con-artists. Perhaps modesty lowers overallhappiness in virtually any society because it prevents gifted people from taking on difficult projects of which they modestly believe themselves to be incapable. Both correlations have the predicted sign but the correlation of overallhappiness (-0.09) is marginally higher than the correlation of the index (-0.07). James, for example, may underscore his commitment to attempting to maximize overallhappiness whenever he acts. If a need is satisfied it may not be felt as intensely as an unsatisfied need of lesser importance in terms of overallhappiness.
