Answer: A comparison of output per worker produced between one country and another.
The economic development of a country is measured by the output produced per worker or the per capita income. The higher per worker production or per capita income means higher standard of living and hence more economically developed is the country. So, an emphasis on economic development is best evaluated by a comparison of output per worker produced between one country and another.
