Flourishing Scale

The Flourishing Scale
The Flourishing Scale is a brief 8-item summary measure of the respondent’s self-perceived
success in important areas such as relationships, self-esteem, purpose, and optimism. The scale
provides a single psychological well-being score.

  4. I actively contribute to the happiness and well-being of others
  5. I am competent and capable in the activities that are important to me
