description Proposed basic concepts and methodology, and described information sources are aimed to construct and use in practice the aggregative quality of life indicators at the level of a region or a country. The methodology exploits factor analysis (with “no training samples” available) and “expert and statistical regression model” (with “training samples” available), and includes a multicriterion scheme.
