Rich Denmark is happier than poorer China
poorer 不是贫穷， 这里等于 less rich。

crunch data？

3. Slang To perform operations on; manipulate or process (numerical or mathematical data).

对资料进行数学统计处理，计算

引用 yannanchen 2011-10-13 07:26

But taken as a whole, the happiness gap (the gap between the least and the most satisfied) seems to have a weak relationship with income inequality, as measured by the Gini coefficient
两个变量，一个是the happiness gap ， 衡量方法是the gap between the least and the most satisfied
另一个是income inequality， 衡量方法是as measured by the Gini coefficient

以基尼系数衡量的幸福之差距？？？

引用 林木木 2011-10-13 08:25

ECONOMISTS, trying hard to dispel a stubborn reputation as a gloomy bunch, have become fascinated with the relationships between wealth, inequality and happiness
力图摆脱素有“悲观一族”之名的经济学家们对财富、不平等和幸福之间的关系愈发着迷了。
愈发？
是不是指最近在研究这些？

There is evidence, at both an individual and a country level, of a relationship between income and happiness.
有证据显示，从个人到国家层面，收入和幸福之间都有一定关系。
有证据显示，无论是在个人到国家层面，收入和幸福之间都有一定关系。

Rich Denmark is happier than poorer China
富裕的丹麦比贫穷的中国要幸福。
比较级？

crunch
1. To chew with a noisy crackling sound.
2. To crush, grind, or tread noisily.
3.Slang To perform operations on; manipulate or process (numerical or mathematical data).

联系并不强烈
联系强烈？

that inequality leads to misery
认为不平等会导致不幸
不幸？有点不合适，用苦闷或是什么比较好似乎

yes

联系并不强烈
联系强烈？
have a weak relationship
默契啊……
我指的是似乎不用强烈来修饰：联系

【汉语大词典】
不幸：(1) 不幸运，倒霉。
(2) 指灾祸，亦特指死。
(3) 表示不希望发生而竟然发生。
这含义……

于是联系改为关系了
不幸=不幸福，与标题的幸福对照。我是这么想的。

基尼系数：有兴趣的可以研究下。还有洛仑兹曲线什么滴。

Measuring inequality: the Gini Index1
Math 128 – Fall 2005

Introduction Most people would agree that “good things,” such as money income, should be more or less equally distributed. In practice, of course, good things are not evenly distributed, and so it’s useful to have a numerical measure of inequality. We might, for instance, watch such a measure over several years to decide whether equity is increasing or decreasing.

The Gini Index (GI) is such a measure. It is widely used used by economists to measure and compare income equality in various countries, or in a given country over time. A GI of 0.00 corresponds to perfect equality—everyone has exactly the same income. A GI of 1.00 corresponds to perfect inequality—one person gets all the income and everyone else gets nothing.

No real-world society has perfect income equality (or complete inequality), and there are good political, moral, and economic arguments to be had about how much income equality is “best” in a given society.Calculating the Gini Index mathematically does not settle these arguments—the disagreements are philo-sophical, not just mathematical. But knowing the Gini Index can lend some quantitative weight to the discussion.

GI information is easy to ?nd on the Web. Here, for instance, are some rough GI data on family income in various countries, culled from the CIA World Factbook. (The GI is reported here as a percent, ranging from 0 to 100.)

Denmark 24.7 Russia 39.9 Japan 24.9 China 40.0 Sweden 25.0 United States 40.8
Kazakhstan 35.4 Honduras 56.3 Portugal 35.6 Brazil 60.7 Ireland 35.9 Sierra Leone 62.9
