One of these measures is World Health Organization Five Well-being Index. This study aimed to evaluate psychometric properties of Persian version of WHO-5 Well-being Index.
Method: The research method was descriptive and correlation. The study sample included 498 university students who were selected voluntary and responded to World Health Organization Five Well-being Index, Beck Depression Inventory and Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (OHQ-SF).
Results: Results of exploratory & confirmatory factor analysis showed that factor structure of WHO-5 Well-Being Index was unidimensional. The internal consistency of World Health Organization Five Well-being Index's items was high and its Cronbach's alpha was 0.89 also test-retest coefficient of index was 0.82. Significant correlation between WHO-5 Well-Being Index's scores with Oxford Happiness Questionnaire's scores indicate good convergent validity (0.57) and also demonstrate appropriate divergence with Beck Depression Inventory's scores validity (-0.61). Generally, results showed that WHO-5 Well-Being Index is valid and reliable instrument to measure normal people's subjective well-being and quality of life.
Conclusion: Using of WHO-5 Well-Being Index is reliable independent of culture, unidimensional and short to assess subjective well-being that facilitates clinical and research studies in different medical, psychiatric and psychological fields.
