Answer
The alternative approach to measuring happiness is based on the belief that the sum of goods and services produced by a country is not a necessary factor in determining a country's well-being, and that material living conditions and life expectancy have an effect on individual happiness, but economic prosperity is not a good predictor of life expectancy.
