Flourishing in Croatia: The Validation of the Croatian versions of the Flourishing Scale and the Scale of Positive and Negative Experience
Although the field of well-being measurement has developed considerably over the last two decades, the measurement of flourishinga construct that refers to high levels of well-beingis still new. In order to effectively promote high levels of well-being, further work is required to add greater precision to the psychometric characteristics of the flourishing measures. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the two scales assessing optimal experience and functioning: The Flourishing Scale (Diener, et al., 2010) and The Scale of Positive and Negative Experience (SPANE) (Diener, et al., 2010) in a large sample of Croatian adults. The study was conducted within a Croatian Longitudinal Study of Well-Being (CRO-WELL) project among 2090 participants (age range 18-85 years ; average age M=34.92, SD=11.65 ; Nmale=482, Nfemale=1662). Using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), we evaluated the factor structure of the two scales, and examined their reliability, criterion, and convergent validity against other commonly used well-being measures. Results revealed that the hypothesized one-factor structure of the Flourishing scale and two-factor structure of the SPANE (including positive and negative experiences) provided a good fit to the data. Moreover, both scales also showed high reliabilities and high convergence with similar scales. These findings strengthen empirical evidence for the use of the Flourishing Scale and the SPANE as a reliable and valid tool for assessing well-being in the general population.
