Well-being: Diversified perspectives in search of operational definitions

well-being is a multi-faceted concept that should be an operational domain. The territory is claimed by many disciplines and professionals who usually emphasize their own unique perspective. Economists and politicians focus on finance, prosperity, per-capita product and jobs. Socially-minded activists focus on poverty, education, personal safety, quality of life, equality and disparities. Law-enforcement focuses on crime. Many health and Medical professionals see their patients mostly through the stethoscope, lab tests and imaging. Psychologists stress stressors, crises and their consequences. Psychiatrists see mental, emotional and cognitive disorders. clergy and philosophers emphasize spirituality, beliefs and cultural values. All are correct! Their outlooks are intertwined with each other and should be integrated into a single well-rounded comprehensive operational entity.
