Description
An International study on cross cultural comparability of Quality of Life ratings.
Apart from several other research questions, we would like to investigate if some measures of QOL are more or less vulnerable to cultural biases. More precisely we would like to find out if the Anamnestic Comparative Self-Assessment (ACSA: see Bernheim, J., & Buyse, M. (1983)) which is a self-anchoring ratingscale for Subjective Well-being, would be less susceptible to cultural differences in peoples' propensity to use or avoid for example extreme ratings in a scale.
