The Five Factor Wellness Inventory (FFWEL) is a new evidence-based tool designed to assess characteristics of wellness as a basis for helping individuals make choices for healthier living. Developed through structural equation modeling analysis of a large database from the Wellness Evaluation of Lifestyle (WEL), the FFWEL measures the higher order Wellness factor, five second order factors and seventeen discrete scales as illustrated in the Indivisible Self: An Evidence-based Model of Wellness. These scales are measured using seventy-four scored items and a number of experimental items. The latter items include a six-item perceived safety scale, a three-item perceived wellness scale, and an eight-item context scale. Demographic items are also included.
The WELLS and the FFWEL have been used to study wellness in relation to diverse psychological constructs and demographic indices. These have also been used for program evaluation.
Please note that two additional forms are included in the Manual/Sampler set: FFWEL-T for adolescents with a 6th grade reading level or above, FFWEL-E for elementary school aged children with a 3rd grade reading level or above.
