I am Ruthra, and I have been working as a psychologist for the past 10 years. Now, I'm interested in conducting research and I would like to conduct a survey on mental health and wellbeing among the faculty and staff at my university. Additionally, I would like to send an automated report with some suggestions once they have completed the assessment.
Ruthra Kannan here is a suggested questionnaire along with a scoring key to assess the mental health wellbeing of college faculty:
Mental Health Wellbeing Questionnaire for College Faculty
Instructions: Please respond to each statement by selecting the option that best describes your experience over the past two weeks.
Scoring Key
- Total Score Calculation:Add the scores for all the items. The total score will range from 10 to 50.
- Interpretation of Scores:41-50: High wellbeing 31-40: Moderate wellbeing 21-30: Low wellbeing 10-20: Very low wellbeing
Follow-Up
Based on the total score, appropriate follow-up actions can be recommended:
- High Wellbeing (41-50): Encourage the faculty to continue their current practices and possibly share their strategies with colleagues.
- Moderate Wellbeing (31-40): Suggest some wellbeing activities or workshops to help improve mental health.
- Low Wellbeing (21-30): Recommend counseling services or mental health support programs.
- Very Low Wellbeing (10-20): Immediate intervention may be necessary; suggest a detailed evaluation by a mental health professional.
This questionnaire and scoring key aim to provide a quick assessment of mental health wellbeing and guide appropriate support measures.
Let me know if you need me to expand the questionnaires further.
Thank you for your detailed response and I hope the questionnaire you share will be helpful. I would like to draw attention to the assessment part. I have observed that many people try to perform well while multitasking, but in reality, they may not be handling the pressure as effectively as they think they areVengatesan Sivaramakrshnan Vengatesan Sivaramakrshnan
Ruthra Kannan It's a great point. Assessing mental health wellbeing should include questions that reflect on multitasking and handling pressure, as these are significant factors that can impact overall wellbeing. I have attached updated version of the questionnaire that includes aspects related to multitasking and stress management.
Scoring Key
- Total Score Calculation:Add the scores for all the items. The total score will range from 12 to 60.
- Interpretation of Scores:50-60: High wellbeing 38-49: Moderate wellbeing 25-37: Low wellbeing 12-24: Very low wellbeing
Follow-Up
Based on the total score, appropriate follow-up actions can be recommended:
- High Wellbeing (50-60): Encourage the faculty to continue their current practices and possibly share their strategies with colleagues.
- Moderate Wellbeing (38-49): Suggest some wellbeing activities or workshops to help improve mental health.
- Low Wellbeing (25-37): Recommend counseling services or mental health support programs.
- Very Low Wellbeing (12-24): Immediate intervention may be necessary; suggest a detailed evaluation by a mental health professional.
Additional Considerations
- Workload Management Workshops: Offer workshops on time management and effective multitasking strategies.
- Stress Management Programs: Provide access to stress management programs and resources.
- Peer Support Groups: Encourage the formation of peer support groups where faculty can share experiences and coping strategies.
This detailed and context-specific questionnaire should be more suitable for a PhD thesis Or Research and provide comprehensive insights into the mental health wellbeing of college faculty.
Let me know if you would like add more views to be added.
