Abstract

The relationship between social networks and subjective wellbeing is assessed by using the UCNets data. A regression analysis shows that a larger social network is associated with a higher subjective wellbeing. Moreover, the results indicate that the number of negative ties has a larger effect on subjective wellbeing than the social network size does.
