"The survey methods for Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index relies on live (not automated) interviewers, dual-frame telephone sampling (which includeslisted landlines as well as random digit dial (RDD) wireless phone sampling to reach those in wireless-only households), and a random selection method forchoosing respondents within a landline household. Additionally, daily tracking includes Spanish-language interviews for respondents who speak onlySpanish, and includes interviews in Alaska and Hawaii. The data are weighted daily to compensate for disproportionalities in selection probabilities andnon-response. The data are weighted to match targets from the U.S. Census Bureau by age, sex, region, gender, education, ethnicity and race. The dataare weighted to match the Center for Disease Control’s National Health Interview Survey targets for telephone status."

"The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index Composite Score is comprised of six sub-indices: Life Evaluation, Emotional Health, Physical Health, HealthyBehavior, Work Environment and Basic Access. The Life Evaluation Sub-Index is partially based on the Cantril Self-Anchoring Striving Scale and combinesthe evaluation of one’s present life situation with one’s anticipated life situation five years from now. The Emotional Health Sub-Index is primarily a compositeof respondents’ daily experiences, asking respondents to think about how they felt yesterday along nine dimensions. The Physical Health Sub-Index iscomprised of questions related to: Body Mass Index, disease burden, sick days, physical pain, daily energy, history of disease and daily health experiences.The Healthy Behavior Sub-Index includes items measuring life style habits with established relationships to health outcomes. The Work EnvironmentSub-Index surveys workers on several factors to gauge their feelings and perceptions about their work environment. The Basic Access Sub-Index is basedon thirteen items measuring resident’s access to food, shelter, healthcare and a safe and satisfying place to live."
