Date: 25th January 2022
Statistics Canada is conducting a Pilot Study on Everyday Well-being, in collaboration with Canada Council for the Arts and Canadian Heritage. The survey will run from 10 January to 31 March, 2022. This project will use a new mobile-phone application called Vitali-T-Stat to test a new way of collecting data.
The Vitali-T-Stat app asks Canadians in-the-moment questions about their activities and feelings to gain a better understanding of how everyday activities contribute to a person’s overall well-being, particularly cultural activities. The goal of the study is to gain a better understanding of the factors that influence well-being, particularly arts and culture activities. These data could be used to better understand the factors that can promote emotional and mental resilience, which could result in the development of programs and services that improve the quality of life of all Canadians.
