Oxford Happiness Questionnaire

How happy are you?

Happiness means something different to everyone — but can it actually be measured? Oxford psychologists Michael Argyle and Peter Hills thought so. Using Beck’s depression questionnaire as a basis, they developed a test to measure human satisfaction with various aspects of their lives. The test has shown strong reliability across multiple studies, as well as the correlation of its results with the results of self-esteem tests and depression tests.

Oxford Happiness Test

The test was originally intended for internal use at Oxford, but it quickly gained wider popularity.

The test consists of 29 questions. In 2002 it was updated: a single six-point scale replaced the individual response options, and the result is presented as a final score from 1 to 6. This page uses the updated version of the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire.
