Resumen

El principal objetivo de este trabajo es analizar elgrado de felicidad en los españoles y especialmente en los millennials. Concretamente, se contrastan las variables demográficas y socioeconómicas influyentes en los niveles de felicidad a través del análisis de los datos ofrecidos por los barómetros del Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas (CIS) en el 2017, con una muestra de 2 494 individuos. Entre las principales conclusiones destaca que la edad y el nivel de estudios no influyen en la felicidad de los millennials. Por el contrario, sí influye el género y la situación laboral. Las mujeres millennials son más felices que los hombres millennials, así como los millennials que trabajan.
