Abstract
This article examines the impact of the Yemeni civil war on subjective well-being (SWB). Analyzing the relationship between regional war intensity and SWB for the period 2015-2023, while accounting for personal characteristics and regional fixed effects, we find a significant negative association between changes in fatality counts within a governorate and changes in SWB. In addition, the more recent political violence in a region, the stronger its negative effect on SWB.
