On Methodological Approaches to Modeling the Quality of Life

In recent decades, it has become obvious that an ecological catastrophe is rapidly approaching civilization and the continued existence development of mankind depends on it. It long been understood in society environmental factors affect standard quality life population. Modeling relationship this influence interdisciplinary task requires removal a number methodological restrictions. Among them: effective data collection monitoring, choice measurement system, "noisiness" data. The purpose work to analyze current state foundations choose method for building model with components structure Today, various systems formalized description are proposed at global level: human index, environmental-economic accounting real progress index sustainable economic well-being happiness according Economist Intelligence Unit, Sustainable Society Index. modern stage research problem modeling level represented by intercountry interregional comparisons using developed mathematical apparatus. presents general problems research; analysis selection methods solving indicators following considered: multicriterial evaluation, multipurpose programming, statistical methods, dynamic modeling, simulation modeling. shown order solve applied life, advisable use multidimensional where initial necessary procedure conversion standardizing (normalizing) data, namely, bringing all variables involved construction integral indicator single unified scale.
