The questionnaire is intended for research purposes
only, and may not be used for diagnostic or clinical
use. By "diagnostic or clinical" it is meant that the
SOC score cannot be the basis of any kind of
physical, mental, cognitive, social or emotional
diagnosis or assessment of the respondent, and
cannot direct therapeutic or medical decisions of
any kind.
New phenomenon has emerged: The SOC scale is, without permission, used to evaluate interventions and activities.
Reliability: SOC-29 test-retest correlations range from 0.69 to 0.78 (1 year), 0.64 (3
years), 0:42 to 00:45 (4 years), 0:59 to 0.67 (5 years) and finally 0:54 after the 10-year
follow-up. The internal consistency measured by Cronbach’s alpha ranges from 0.70 to
0.95 using SOC-29 (124 studies), 0.70 to 0.92 (127 studies) using SOC-13 (ibid, p.
463). The sense of coherence scale shows high internal consistency.

Salutogenesis is more than the sense of coherence
We have to look behind the facade and identify salutogenic factors in the environment and abilities of people
What is the soul of salutogenesis?
