OECD Ülkeleri İçin Refah Ölçümü: Gri İlişkisel Analiz Uygulaması

Öz:
Son yıllarda refah değerlendirmesine olan ilginin artması, bölgesel ve ulusal düzeyde refahınölçülmesinde çok çeşitli istatistiksel ve optimizasyon tekniklerinin kullanılmasını sağlamıştır.Bu çalışmada, gri ilişkisel analizini (GİA) entropy formülü ile birleştiren metodolojik biryaklaşım kullanılarak, 34 OECD ülkesinin refah düzeyi skorlarının hesaplanmasıamaçlanmıştır. Refah ölçümü OECD'nin iki boyutlu çerçevesi göz önüne alınarak incelenmiştir.Bu boyutlardan ilki olan yaşam kalitesi boyutu sağlık durumu, iş - yaşam dengesi, eğitim -beceriler, sosyal bağlantılar, sivil katılım - yönetişim, çevresel kalite, kişisel güvenlik, öznelrefah gibi göstergeleri ile incelenmektedir. Diğer boyut olan fiziki durum ise gelir - servet, iş -kazanç ve barınma göstergelerini kapsamaktadır. OECD Bölgesel Refah Veri tabanındantoplanan, yaşam kalitesi ve fiziki duruma ilişkin göstergeler 15 yıllık dönem (2000-2014)içerisindeki en güncel verilerden oluşmaktadır. Sonuç olarak, İzlanda, Avustralya, Norveç veİsviçre'nin en yüksek refah seviyesine ulaştığı tespit edilmiştir. Sıralamanın diğer ucunda yeralan Macaristan, Yunanistan, Türkiye ve Meksika’nın ise nispeten daha düşük refah seviyesinesahip oldukları gözlenmiştir.

Measuring Wellbeing in OECD: An Application of Grey Relational Analysis

Öz:
There has been growing interest in the assessment of well-being in recent years and a wide range of statistical and optimization techniques have been used to measure well-being at regional and national level. This paper aims at computing the well-being scores of 34 OECD countries, using a methodological approach that combines grey relational analysis (GRA) with entropy formula. The measurement of well-being process was examined by considering the two-dimensional framework of the OECD. The dimension of quality of life is examined by the indicators such as health status, work – life balance, education – skills, social connections, civic engagement – governance, environmental quality, personal security, subjective well-being. And the dimension of material living and conditions covers income – wealth, jobs – earnings and housing indicators. The data were collected from the OECD Regional Well-Being Database. The data used in this study refer to last available year in 15-year period (2000–2014), belonging to various quality of life and material conditions. Consequently, it was revealed that Iceland, Australia, Norway and Switzerland have achieved the highest level of well–being. At the other end of ranking, Hungary, Greece, Turkey, and Mexico have been observed to have relatively lower well–being level.
