Life Satisfaction and Its Relation to Leisure and Self-Reported Health with an Example from Mexico

Such an evaluation usually takes into consideration more than just economic conditions. In this paper, we present the relationship of life satisfaction with two of its main determinants, namely, self-reported health and leisure satisfaction. To exemplify this relationship, we utilize data from Mexico.
