The document discusses the Social Progress Index, which measures social and environmental outcomes in countries. It provides information on the framework used to measure outcomes across three dimensions: basic human needs, foundations of wellbeing, and opportunity. Countries are given an overall score and ranked in each dimension based on their performance on relevant indicators. The document also describes how country scorecards show strengths and weaknesses relative to economic peers using a methodology that compares performance to the median scores of the closest 15 countries in GDP per capita.
Social Progress Index 2014 - Country Scorecardssocprog
Each country measured by the Social Progress Index 2014 is more closely analyzed by comparing it to a cohort group of the 15 closest countries in terms of GDP. This allows us to identify areas of under and over performance as suggested by similar GDP, and begin more targeted conversations on the interventions necessary to improve performance.
2016 Social Progress Index Media Brief - Short Versionsocprog
The 2016 Social Progress Index launched June 28. It covers 133 countries with 53 indicators of social and environmental outcomes. Higher GDP per capita alone does not determine real quality of life. The Index ranks Finland the world’s most socially progressive country; Canada in second place tops the G7 nations. Economic growth is not the sole determinant of quality of life. The 2016 Index finds that while social progress—which includes measures of opportunity, healthcare, education and tolerance—does tend to rise as GDP increases, economic wealth on its own does not explain social progress outcomes.

APA's latest national poll surveyed Millennials and Baby Boomers on community preferences and dispels popular assumptions on how to improve local economies and attract new residents.
“Combat and rape, the public and private forms of organized social violence, are primarily experiences of adolescent and early adult life. The United States Army enlists young men at seventeen; the average age of the Vietnam combat soldier was nineteen. In many other countries boys are conscripted for military service while barely in their teens. Similarly, the period of highest risk for rape is in late adolescence. Half of all victims are aged twenty or younger at the time they are raped; three-quarters are between the ages of thirteen and twenty-six. The period of greatest psychological vulnerability is also in reality the period of greatest traumatic exposure, for both young men and young women. Rape and combat might thus be considered complementary social rites of initiation into the coercive violence at the foundation of adult society. They are the paradigmatic forms of trauma for women and men.”

To effectively tackle the economic and social problems that challenge national stability and growth, both must be measured. The Social Progress Index 2014 focuses on a country’s social and environmental strengths and weaknesses, independent of their economic performance. Covering critical issues such as healthcare, infrastructure and civil liberties, the Index benchmarks country performance to drive forward national debate and help prioritize investment decisions.

Findings from the Social Progress Index: US Statessocprog
The Social Progress Index: US States is an objective, transparent measure that compares quality of life in all 50 states. The Social Progress Index is meant to complement, not replace, economic measures like GDP per capita and Median Household Income. These measures only tell half the story about what life is really like for ordinary Americans. The Social Progress Index™ highlights the issues and the individuals that are invisible when only looking at changes in the economy. The Social Progress Imperative, a US-based nonprofit, created the index to help local officials, businesses and community organizations understand how well people are truly living, how economic changes are affecting quality of life, and what improvements can have the greatest impact on society.

2017 Social Progress Index Findings Presentationsocprog
The 2017 Social Progress Index launched June 21. Though there is a strong relationship between economic performance, as measured by GDP PPP per capita, and performance on the Social Progress Index, some countries achieve much higher social progress relative to countries with similar GDP per capita. For example, Nepal scores 60.08 on the Social Progress Index with a GDP per capita of $2,312, while Yemen, with a GDP per capita of $2,649, scores only 43.46. The Index demonstrates that economic growth is not sufficient for social progress. Countries and communities that want better lives for their citizens need to go beyond economic growth alone in designing their development strategies.

• 2015 results rank and analyse 133 countries with partial results for
an additional 28 countries
• Measures country performance across 52 indicators to answer three
questions:
1. Does a country provide for its people’s most essential needs?
2. Are the building blocks in place for people to improve their
lives?
3. Is there opportunity for people to improve their position in
society?
Country Performance Scorecards
• Strengths and weakness analysis examines
country performance relative to a group of
comparator countries with similar resources
(measured in terms of GDP per capita)
• Holistic view of priority areas for action and

Strengths and weaknesses are relative to 15 countries of similar GDP: Relative Strength n/a – no data available
Neutral
Relative Weakness
Background. The component, dimension and overall Social Progress Index scores
are scaled from 0 to 100 with 100 as the score that a country would achieve were it to
have the highest possible score on every indicator, and 0 as the score were it to have
the lowest possible score on every indicator. With this scale, it is possible to evaluate
a country’s performance relative to the best and worst possible score.
In some cases, it is also helpful to compare a country’s performance to other
countries at a similar level of economic development. For example, a lower-income
country may have a low score on a certain component, but could greatly exceed
typical scores for countries with similar per capita incomes. Conversely, a high-
income country may have a high absolute score on a component, but still fall short of
what is typical for comparably wealthy countries. For this reason, we have developed
a methodology to present a country’s strengths and weaknesses on a relative rather
than absolute basis, comparing a country’s performance to that of its economic
peers.
SOCIAL PROGRESS INDEX SCORECARD OVERVIEW
Reading the relative analysis scorecard. Within the group of peer countries,
yellow signifies that a country’s performance is typical for countries at its level of
economic development, green signifies that the country performs substantially
better than its peer group, and red signifies that the country performs substantially
worse than its peer group.
Standard groupings of countries, such as the classifications done by the World
Bank, are not appropriate for our purposes for two reasons.
First, the groupings are too large, representing excessively wide ranges of social
performance and therefore few relative strengths and weaknesses.
Second, using these groups, countries at the top or bottom of a group may appear
to have a misleadingly large number of strengths or weaknesses simply because
the group the country is being compared to is at a much lower or higher level of
economic development. We therefore define the group of a country’s economic
peers as the 15 countries closest in GDP PPP per capita. In order to reduce the
influence of year-to-year fluctuations in GDP data, a four-year average is used
(2010-2013).
After significant testing, we found that larger groupings resulted in a wider range of
typical scores and therefore too few relative strengths and weakness. Smaller
groupings become too sensitive to outliers.
Once the group of comparator countries is established, the country’s performance
is compared to the median performance of countries in the group. The median is
used rather than the mean, to minimize the influence of outliers. If the country’s
score is greater than (or less than) the average absolute deviation from the median
of the comparator group, it is considered a strength (or weakness). Scores that are
within one average absolute deviation are within the range of expected scores and
are considered neither strengths nor weaknesses. A floor is established so the
thresholds are no less than those for poorer countries.
When the distribution of scores is tight around the median with too little variation to
assess relative strengths and weaknesses, a 1 point band around the median is
used to determine strengths and weaknesses.
