Ratings are averaged and the mean total is reported ranging from 1 to 5. Higher scores reflect better perceived well-being.

Items are rated on a 5-point scale from 1 "not at all true" to 5 "completely true." Each sub-scale has 8 items. Scores were averaged across items with reported mean ranging from 1 to 5. Higher scores reflect higher satisfaction or need being met to a higher degree. The Autonomy sub-scale measures how much a person feels they have choice in what they do in their everyday life.
