Global Well-being Scale: Analysis of their psychometric characteristics

Abstract

Interest in the study of well-being remains relevant. Seligman (2011/2012) presents a theory of well-being based on five elements: positive emotions, engagement, meaning, positive relationships and personal accomplishment. On this basis, a global well-being scale (EBeG) was constructed and validated for the Portuguese population. Through the exploratory and confirmatory factorial analysis, a structural model with a well-adjusted component and 9 items was obtained, with a good level of internal consistency.
