About This Tool

What is the Gratitude Questionnaire (GQ-6)?
The Gratitude Questionnaire (GQ-6) is a scientifically developed tool designed to measure your level of gratitude. Created by psychologists, it helps individuals reflect on the positive aspects of their lives and recognize the things they are grateful for. This six-question survey provides a snapshot of your gratitude level and offers insights into how often you experience gratitude in daily life.

How Does the Gratitude Questionnaire Work?
You’ll answer six statements related to gratitude, each rated on a scale from “Strongly Disagree” to “Strongly Agree.” Some statements are reverse-scored to ensure an accurate measure. At the end, you’ll receive a score indicating your overall level of gratitude, along with a personalized message to help you reflect on the results.
