Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (WEMWBS) Test - Symptoms and Signs
This measure assesses subjective mental well-being using positively worded statements reflecting current functioning and affect. The Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (WEMWBS) is a brief self-report instrument intended to capture overall psychological well-being.
Respondents rate how often each statement has applied to them over the past week, supporting routine monitoring in clinical, community, or research settings. It contains 14 items and typically takes about 3 minutes to complete. Scoring yields an overall index of well-being that can be used to describe baseline status and track change over time.
The Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (WEMWBS) was developed by Sarah Stewart-Brown and Stephen Platt.
