You must be 18 years or older to take this assessment. We do not collect any explicitly identifying information. You can read our privacy policy here. Your response will form part of the Global Mind Project (previously the Mental Health Million Project), providing insight into the mental wellbeing of the global population.

What is Mental Wellbeing and What Does the MHQ Tell You?

Mental wellbeing is the ability to handle life and its various stresses and challenges. The MHQ is therefore a snapshot of your self-perception along various dimensions of mental function that determine your mental wellbeing. It is not a measure of happiness or life satisfaction. You could, for example, be experiencing very difficult or sad circumstances in your life but nonetheless have all the capabilities to cope as best as one could, and therefore have a high level of mental wellbeing.
