This well-being score ranges from 0 – 100 %. Scores below 52 % may suggest lowered well-being and warrant a more detailed clinical assessment.

Wellbeing scores capture how positive mood and energy have felt over a recent period, offering a quick snapshot that helps you notice patterns and choose small, useful changes. The WHO 5 index focuses on positive experiences so results are easy to read and discuss with a coach or clinician if needed.

You answer five short statements about the past two weeks and a total score appears with a simple interpretation. The result highlights your overall level and shows two helpful angles, one for feelings and calm and one for energy and rest, so you can focus your next step.

For example, someone who often felt calm and interested but woke tired might score in the middle band, then plan steadier sleep and a short daily walk. Repeating the screen at similar times makes scores easier to compare and helps track small changes.

Use consistent answers, think about the same two week window, and avoid rushing. Results are sensitive to daily swings, and a low score that persists deserves attention and support. This tool provides informational estimates and does not substitute professional advice.

Technical Details:

The instrument measures recent subjective wellbeing using five positively worded items. Each item is rated on a 0 to 5 scale from absence to presence. Two subscores are derived for interpretation: an Affect subscale (items 1, 2, 5) and a Vitality subscale (items 3, 4). The primary output is a raw total and a percent score, alongside a band label.

The computation sums the five item ratings to form a raw total, then scales that value to a percent score for readability. Subscale totals are compared to their own maxima to indicate low, moderate, or high levels on Affect and Vitality.

R = ∑ i=1 5 ri p = 4⁢R A = r1+r2+r5 V = r3+r4
Symbol Meaning Unit/Datatype Source
ri Item rating for statement i (i = 1…5) integer 0–5 Input
R Raw total across five items 0–25 Derived
p Percent score (scaled from raw) 0–100 % Derived
A Affect subscale (items 1, 2, 5) 0–15 Derived
V Vitality subscale (items 3, 4) 0–10 Derived
Worked example. Suppose the five ratings are 4, 3, 2, 4, 3.
R = 4+3+2+4+3=16 p = 4⁢16=64% A = 4+3+3=10/15 V = 2+4=6/10
Interpretation: 64 % falls in the “Good” band. Both subscales sit in the moderate range.
Band Raw Lower Raw Upper Percent Lower Percent Upper Interpretation
Excellent 21 25 84 % 100 % High subjective wellbeing; continue protective habits.
Good 16 20 64 % 80 % Positive wellbeing; small adjustments can help.
Moderate 13 15 52 % 60 % Moderate level; consider gentle routine changes.
Poor 0 12 0 % 48 % Low wellbeing; a deeper check may be warranted.

Subscale grading follows the same idea using each subscale’s maximum: below 52 % is low, 52 % to under 76 % is moderate, and 76 % or above is high.

Networking & storage behavior

Computation and exports run in the browser. No data is transmitted or stored server‑side. You may share the result if you choose.

Assumptions & limitations

  • Reflects the past two weeks by design; different windows reduce comparability.
  • Positive wording may lift mood framing compared with symptom checklists.
  • Band cut points are fixed to the raw totals in this build.
  • Subscales are for feedback; they do not change the total score.
  • Heads‑up Minor answer changes near thresholds can change the band.
  • Progress shows rounded percent; totals remain exact integers.
  • Prefill codes that fail validation are ignored without error.
  • Exports are generated locally; download or clipboard blocks may prevent them.

Edge cases & error sources

  • Incomplete responses do not produce a result.
  • Invalid r codes are ignored and answers remain unchanged.
  • Accidental double‑clicks on options simply replace the value.
  • Rapid resizing may briefly delay the gauge redraw.
  • Clipboard access can be denied by browser settings.
  • Download prompts can be blocked by strict site permissions.
  • Equal subscale totals are reported as “Balanced”.
  • Near‑threshold totals can flip bands after one point change.
  • Long device sleep during use can reset progress if the page reloads.
  • Dark mode changes only the theme, not the calculations.

Step‑by‑Step Guide:

The WHO‑5 wellbeing screen collects five ratings and reports a total with an interpretation you can act on.

  1. Select how you have felt over the past two weeks for each statement.
  2. Use the 0 to 5 options that best match your experience.
  3. Watch progress reach 100 % as you answer the five items.
  4. Read your total, percent, and band at completion.
  5. Review Affect and Vitality subscores and highlights.
  6. Copy or download your responses if you wish to keep a record.
Example: ratings 3, 3, 2, 2, 4 → total 14 → 56 % → “Moderate.” Plan one enjoyable activity and steadier sleep for a week.

That is all—five honest answers produce a clear, repeatable snapshot you can track.

FAQ:

What does the score mean?

It summarizes recent positive mood and energy. Bands indicate Excellent, Good, Moderate, or Poor. Scores below about 52 % may signal lowered wellbeing.

Interpretation is guidance, not diagnosis.
Is my data stored?

No. Answers stay on your device. You may copy or download your responses locally if you choose.

Nothing is sent to a server.
How are subscores used?

Affect totals items 1, 2, 5; Vitality totals items 3, 4. Each is graded low, moderate, or high relative to its own maximum to guide focus.

Can I prefill answers from a link?

Yes. A five‑character code can prefill, where 0–5 are ratings and “‑” means blank. Invalid codes are ignored.

Can I use it without a connection?

Calculations and exports work in the browser. If supporting scripts are unavailable, visual gauges may not render.

What does a “borderline” result mean?

Values near cut points can move between bands with a one‑point change. Read the subscores and trends alongside the total.
