The Stirling Childre's Wellbeing Scale (SCWBS) was a project initiated by the Educational Psychology Service with the objective of creating a holistic, positively worded scale measuring emotional and psychological wellbeing in children aged of 8 to 15 years. The scale was developed and standardised by administering the questionnaire across 18 schools in the Stirling Council area with a population sample of 1 800 children.
