Description

Definition
The Negative Experience Index is a measure of respondents' experienced wellbeing on the day before the survey. The index provides a real-time measure of respondents' negative experiences.

INDEX QUESTIONS
- Did you experience the following feelings during a lot of the day yesterday? How about physical pain? (WP68)
- Did you experience the following feelings during a lot of the day yesterday? How about worry? (WP69)
- Did you experience the following feelings during a lot of the day yesterday? How about sadness? (WP70)
- Did you experience the following feelings during a lot of the day yesterday? How about stress? (WP71)
- Did you experience the following feelings during a lot of the day yesterday? How about anger? (WP74)

INDEX CONSTRUCTION
Index scores are calculated at the individual record level. For each individual the following procedure applies: The five items are recoded so that affirmative answers are scored as a "1" and all other answers (including don't know or refused) are a "0." If a record has no answer for an item, then that item is not eligible for inclusion in the calculations. An individual record has an index calculated if it has at least four out of five valid scores (0 or 1). The record's final score is the mean of valid items multiplied by 100. The final country-level index score is the mean of all individual records for which an index score was calculated. Country-level weights are applied to this calculation.

RELIABILITY
The Negative Experience Index has a Cronbach's alpha of .80 when aggregated at the country level.
