Sumario:The Pemberton Happiness Index (PHI) scale was developed by Hervás and Vázquez (2013) as a simple and integrative index that can be used to monitor changes in well-being. PHI was administered to a sample of 1198 subjects living in the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires (ages: 18-60, M = 27.82, SD = 12.01, 43.2% men). In the application to the Argentine context, it is proposed to specifically use the remembered dimension of well-being without considering the item related to negative emotionality. In this way, a Cronbach´s alpha = .88 (10 items) is obtained. We verify high levels of well-being, especially in relation to psychological well-being and subdomains of life satisfaction and positive affections. However, regarding social well-being, participants report mid-levels. Results are discussed taking into account local background.
