International Wellbeing Group

Members are invited to join ACQol’s International Wellbeing Group (IWbG). The group was formed by Professor Robert Cummins and Dr Anna Lau in November 2001, as an international collaborative network, where members have a special interest in developing the Personal Wellbeing Index (PWI). The IWbG members are the custodians of the PWI and hold periodic discussions regarding the scale’s format. Under the auspice of the IWbG, the PWI will continue to develop in the spirit of controlled evolution. As new results and insights into subjective wellbeing emerge, the current 6th Edition (2024) will be modified to optimize the ability of the scale to yield data, that are consistent with the SWB construct, in a cross-cultural context.
