"A prominent finding of the study entitled “Economy and happiness: Evidence from Vietnam’s rural areas” was that marriage makes people happier. Those who are divorced or separated were the most unsatisfied with their lives.

The study was jointly conducted by researchers by the Universities of Copenhagen, Helsinki University and UNU-WIDER University, along with Vietnam's Institute of Policy and Strategy for Agriculture and Rural Development (IPSARD), and was released on November 21 in Hanoi.
