The relevance of the issue is determined by the structural gap identified in the domestic scientific literature: despite the declarative recognition of the environmental dimension as a significant component of multidimensional well-being, Russian methods of assessing the quality of life either marginalize this component, limiting themselves to individual sanitary and hygienic indicators, or include it as an auxiliary block that lacks a theoretically justified positioning. Based on the thesis of limited integration of environmental measurements in Russian scientific schools of quality-of-life research, this article aims to explain the nature of this methodological gap.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The scientific problem of this research is that this situation is not due to chance or a gap in the empirical base, but rather to the inherent duality of the nature of environmental measurement. The environment is both a fundamental condition for human life (clean air, drinking water, and undisturbed natural ecosystems) and a resultant characteristic of anthropogenic activity (emissions levels, solid municipal waste, and the degree of natural resource degradation). This duality creates a fundamental methodological difficulty in constructing integral indices. The scientific novelty of this work lies in the conceptual justification of the dual nature of the environmental component as a methodological reason for its structural marginalization in integral indices of quality of life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> quality of life; standard of living; sustainable development; environment; environmental factor; assessment methodology; regional economy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vladimirov Ivan Andreevich Russian State University for the Humanities, Moscow, Russia E-mail: vladim.ivan@mail.ru ORCID: https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8949-3942 RSCI: https:\/\/elibrary.ru\/author_profile.asp?id=957126 Abstract.
