The questionnaires had been kept using the respondent and not completed at the time of recruitment, as this strategy allowed respondents ample time to full the questionnaire in privacy and reduced the likelihood of interviewer bias.Information collectionThe info collected within the distinctive stages integrated socio-demographic details about the participants, several questionnaires relating to domains ofmental overall health and well-being and validity measures. The intention to add this domain was to become able to derive comparisons with all the literature on `Affect’, which has been widely studied across various nations. 18 domain specific negatively worded filler products have been also randomly distributed throughout the instrument. The goal of including these products was to investigate pattern responses. These had been subsequently not incorporated in any analysis or scoring. three. PMH instrument (Stage 2): Following factor analysis in Stage 1, the final instrument comprised 47 positively worded items representing the six domains of mental wellness. Respondents have been presented together with the statements in conjunction with a 6-item response scale for 5 domains (except for `Global affect’ domain). They had been asked to choose a quantity showing how much the item described them on the scale, exactly where `1′ represented `not at all like me’, `2′ – pretty slightly like me’, `3′ – slightly like me, `4′ -`moderately like me’, `5′ – `very a great deal like me and `6′ corresponded to `exactly like me’.
