The Well-being (Wb) Scale evaluates an individual’s overall sense of satisfaction, emotional resilience, and stability. It emphasizes maintaining a positive outlook and a balanced approach to life. This scale highlights how effectively a person sustains personal fulfillment in the face of challenges.

The scale is part of the California Psychological Inventory (CPI), a well-established tool for understanding personality characteristics that contribute to effective behavior in various contexts. This scale is frequently used in leadership development and organizational coaching to identify strengths and developmental opportunities.

Very low scores on Wb are suggestive of exaggerated or even feigned worries, but moderately low scores are attained by respondents who in fact are seen as worrying, beset by problems, and unsure about how to deal with them. High scores, on the contrary, betoken general feelings of well-being and competence, favorable life circumstances, and contentment. (p. 124)
