Profile Wellbeing in Older People

The Wellbeing Evaluation Scale (WES) is a brief, self report measure designed to measure wellbeing in older people (age 55+), though it may have relevance for younger groups.

Informed by an evidence-based theoretical framework the WES was developed with a reading age of 12 years, and has both long (45 item) and short (18 item) questionnaires. Respondents rate themselves against statements on a 5-point Likert scale

The 45 item Long Form provides a measure of subjective, behavioural and contextual dimensions of well-being across 6 structural properties of well-being:

• Integrity of self
• Integrity of others
• Belonging
• Agency
• Enrichment
• Security

Responses are collated and represented as percentiles, providing a profile of well-being across all 6 domains.

The 18 item Short Form provides an average wellbeing score and population percentiles.

The WES has been developed on both clinical and non-clinical populations, and can be used as a clinical assessment or care planning tool, as well as providing an overall measure of well-being. It is exceptional in that it is relevant for both individual and population based assessment in all social and health care settings as well as demographic and epidemiological research.

Key Features:
