Description In this study, we extend the study on perceived happiness by exploring the effect of tolerance on life satisfaction in a sample of 96 countries. Our results showed that tolerance was positively linked to life satisfaction. This result remained robust even after controlling a few potential determinants of subjective wellbeing. Even more, our results showed that Latin American countries are on average associated with higher levels of life satisfaction. Finally, we’ve found that economic development mediates the link between tolerance and life satisfaction.
