Wellbeing questions | ||||
Unlike the questions B01 to B62 which ask people to rate their agreement from strongly agree to strongly disagree | ||||
the four wellbeing questions use a 11 point scale | ||||
This scale ranges from 0 to 10 for each question | ||||
where 0 is equivalent to not at all for example not all at satisfied or not at all worthwhile | ||||
and where 10 is equivalent to completely for example completely satisfied or completely anxious | ||||
For questions W01 W02 and W03 the percent positive is the proportion answering 7 8 9 or 10 to each question | ||||
