After many years of research on conventional economic issues, I began exploring heterodox economic issues related to subjective wellbeing from a multi-disciplinary perspective. My recent research covers various topics including human nature, subjective well-being, institutional economics, and neuroeconomics. I recently developed three-dimensional happiness model to go beyond the limited wellbeing approach in the literature. I have ongoing theoretical and empirical studies on 3D of happiness including a major neuroeconomics project based on fMRI. I will share the findings of those studies as they become available.
Any income generated from the sale of 3D of Happiness will be fully allocated to academic research on the same subject.
Researchers and educators are welcome to use the 3D of Happiness scales I have developed for non-commercial purposes. The online version of those scales is available on this website.
