wellness inventories or emotional assessment tools

Introduction

The wellness inventory is a tool that helps assess your emotional wellbeing and can be used to improve mental health. It’s also a great way to identify triggers and habits that affect your moods in the moment.

Immediate Emotional Response Scale (IERS)

The Immediate Emotional Response Scale (IERS) is a self-report measure of emotional responses to stressful events. It has been used in many different populations and situations, including the study of stress hormones and mental health disorders.

The IERS asks participants to rate their feelings on a scale of 0-6 at three different points during a stressful situation: before they start, while they’re going through it and after they finish. This can be done multiple times per day if necessary; however, it’s important that you do not try to complete all six items at once! You might get overwhelmed by what you see on your screen if you do so.

The Depressive Experiences Questionnaire (DEQ)

The Depressive Experiences Questionnaire (DEQ) is a self-report questionnaire that assesses the degree to which people experience depressive thoughts and feelings. It has been shown to be an effective tool in helping patients identify their level of depression, as well as identifying those who may benefit from treatment.

General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12)

The General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) is a screening tool for assessing the presence of common mental disorders. It is used to detect depression and anxiety, as well as other conditions that may be related to these illnesses. The GHQ-12 has been shown to have good sensitivity in detecting major depression and other common mental disorders such as generalized anxiety disorder, social phobia, panic disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).

The GHQ-12 was first developed by Wakefield in 1974; however it has since undergone several revisions over time including most recently in 2015 by Wardle et al.[2].

Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21)

The Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS) is a 21-item self-assessment tool that measures three key emotional states: depression, anxiety and stress. It can be used to monitor progress over time by asking participants to rate their symptoms on a scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely). A total score for each item is calculated by adding up the number of items for which the participant scored “0” and multiplying by 100.

The DASS-21 has been validated in English speakers using an international sample of US adults aged 18 years old or older who are employed full time at least 16 hours per week; volunteers recruited through advertising on television stations; convenience samples of private practice psychiatrists; and inpatients admitted by psychiatric hospitals throughout North America during January–December 2003–2004 seasonally adjusted data except when otherwise noted herein.

Patient Health Questionnaire for Depression and Anxiety (PHQ-4)

The Patient Health Questionnaire for Depression and Anxiety (PHQ-4) is a 4-item self-report measure that screens for the presence of depression and anxiety in primary care settings. It has been shown to have good reliability, validity, and sensitivity to change over time when used with both adults and adolescents.

The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II)

The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) is a self-report questionnaire for measuring depression. It’s a good measure of current depression, because it has 21 questions and asks about your symptoms over the past week. The BDI-II should not be used as an indicator of severity—it’s better to use another assessment tool for that purpose—but it does provide an interesting look at what may contribute to your mood disorder in general.

Takeaway:

One of the most important things to take away from this article is that you should be aware of your own mental health and how it relates to your daily life. The more you understand about yourself, the better equipped you will be to deal with any issues that arise in your life.

The tool we used for this article was Emotional Assessment for Living Well-Being Inventory (EAL-WB). This is a self-reporting inventory that provides an overview of how someone feels about themselves and their world. It also provides some insight into what kind of lifestyle choices they have made over time as well as how they perceive other people around them (i.e., friends).

There are limitations associated with using this particular inventory because there are no right or wrong answers when completing one; however, these responses can help us gain valuable insight into whether or not our lives meet certain criteria such as financial stability or job satisfaction etcetera…

Conclusion

We’ve looked at five different types of inventory that psychologists can use to assess their clients’ emotional health. Each type has strengths and weaknesses, but all of them offer a different kind of information and will help you develop a more thorough understanding of your client’s situation. The most important thing is to know what kinds of questions are relevant to your needs as a practitioner or caregiver—and which ones should be given less weight in your evaluation process than others.
