HOW TO MEASURE HAPPINESS AND WELL-BEING<\/h1>

Positive Psychology measures everything that affects our quality of life, health and longevity.<\/p>

<\/p>

The most well-respected and established short measure used to assess subjective well-being
is called the Satisfaction with Life Scale<\/strong> (Diener et al., 1985), which consists of five statements listed below.
As you read through them, you too can answer them and give a score to each based on the following exercise:<\/p><\/div>

<\/p>

EXERCISE<\/h2>

Rate each statement from 1 = Strongly Disagree<\/strong> to 7 = Strongly Agree<\/strong>.<\/p>

Scale: 1 \u00a0 2 \u00a0 3 \u00a0 4 \u00a0 5 \u00a0 6 \u00a0 7<\/strong><\/div>

<\/p>

  1. In most ways my life is close to ideal<\/li>
  2. The conditions of my life are excellent<\/li>
  3. I am satisfied with my life<\/li>
  4. So far I have got the important things I want in life<\/li>
  5. If I could live my life over, I would change almost nothing<\/li><\/ol><\/div>

    <\/p>

    Scoring & Interpretation<\/h2>

    Add the numbers you scored for the five questions to get a total. Then, check your result below:<\/p>
