Questions asked
The Office of National Statistics study is updated every six months to provide a picture of life across the UK.
After extensive public consultation the body identified 10 aspects of life that people said mattered to their well-being.
These include personal well-being, our relationships, our health, the economy, and the environment.
Since 2011, ONS has asked questions to adults in the UK, to better understand how they feel about their lives, including:
Overall, how satisfied are you with your life nowadays?
Overall, to what extent do you feel the things you do in your life are worthwhile?
Overall, how happy did you feel yesterday?
Overall, how anxious did you feel yesterday?
People are asked to respond on a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 is “not at all” and 10 is “completely”.
