IANAL, but generally judges like to apply
as little
subjective judgement to a case

Flourishing has been postulated
as a distinct measure of well - being that is separate to life satisfaction, which taps into more evaluative
judgements of
subjective - well - being [70], [71]; the flourishing construct taps into perceptions of self - efficacy, optimism, success at social relationships, purpose in life, and self esteem.
