Abstract (2. Language): 
It has been understood that it is not enough to consider just certain macro-economic indicators to determine the development level of countries. Human Development Index (HDI), which is a part of the Human Development Report (HDR) published by United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is a complex index prepared for this end with a focus on education and health as well as income. Yet, once it was realized that this index had certain limitations, some other indices were created. Happy Planet Index (HPI), which was first used by New Economic Foundation (NEF) in 2006, is one of these indices. In this study, canonical correlation analysis, a multivariate statistical method was applied to examine the relation between HDI and HPI calculated for 150 countries. The empirical findings of the study have revealed that there is a very strong and meaningful canonical relation between HDI and HPI.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Ülkelerin gelişmişlik düzeylerinin belirlenmesinde yalnızca belirli makro-ekonomik göstergelerin dikkate alınması yeterli olmadığı anlaşılmıştır. Birleşmiş Milletler Kalkınma Programı (UNDP) tarafından yayımlanan İnsani Gelişmişlik Raporu (HDR)’de yer alan İnsani Gelişmişlik Endeksi (HDI) bu amaçla geliştirilen gelirin yanı sıra eğitim ve sağlık verilerini de göz önüne alan bileşik bir endekstir. Ancak bu endeksin belirli sınırlılıklarının fark edilmesiyle birlikte farklı bir takım endeksler hesaplanmaya başlanmıştır. Yeni Ekonomi Kurumu (NEF) tarafından ilk kez 2006 yılında hesaplanan Mutlu Gezegen Endeksi (HPI) bu endekslerdendir. Çalışmada seçilen 150 ülke için hesaplanan HDI ve HPI arasındaki ilişkiler çok değişkenli istatistiksel yöntemlerden kanonik korelasyon analizi ile araştırılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda elde edilen ampirik bulgulardan HDI ve HPI arasında oldukça anlamlı ve güçlü bir kanonik ilişki olduğu saptanmıştır.
