Resumen

VELASCO ARELLANES, Francisco Justiniano; VERA NORIEGA, José Ángel  y  TIRADO MEDINA, Hugo. BIARE survey 2012: subjective analysis related to mexican people well-being and structural modeling. Psicogente [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.41, pp.333-352. ISSN 0124-0137.  https://doi.org/10.17081/psico.22.41.3357.

Objective:

The National Self-Reported Well-being Survey (BIARE) was designed to assess well-being in mexican population, considering well-being of a society as a multidimensional construct (objective and subjective components). However, the structure and relationship between modules (sub-scales) to explain mexican well-being has not been explored yet. Thus, this study aims to explore the structure and relationship among those sub-scales based on the BIARE survey 2012 (INEGI, 2012) through structural modeling.

Method:

BIARE, Secondary data analysis, which is random and representative of Mexican people was conducted; 10.654 citizens, who were between 18 and 70 years were sampled; 5.967 women and 4.687 men.

Results:

As a result, three models were found. In a first model, the latent variable related to general well-being associated with empirical variables such as: solvency, happiness, satisfaction and self-determination were considered. In a second model, two latent variables are proposed: 1) Perceived well-being, associated with three empirical variables as follows: a) life Satisfaction b) Self-determination and c) Happiness; 2) Socioculture, also related to three empirical variables, which are: a) Selflessness, b) Cultivated relationships and c) Virtual relationships. A third model of trajectories for latent variables showed adjustments that explain relations among variable Happiness with Solvency, Satisfaction and Self-determination.

Conclusions:

The information that can be obtained from BIARE questionnaire is relevant to evaluate citizens´s perception and immediate environment, like family. But it does not allow for an accurate assessment about contribution of meso and macro-social factors on mexican´s well-being. It is necessary that BIARE integrate a multidimensional model of well-being.
