“…The use of questionnaires to measure well-being and IS might provide a more direct answer to the question of adaptivity. Cross-sectional empirical studies consistently revealed weak to moderate (r = 0.09 -0.42, p < 0.05) positive association between IS (as assessed by the Body Awareness Questionnaire, the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness scale and the Somatic Absorption Scale) and various indicators of psychological and subjective well-being (as assessed by the Satisfaction with Life Scale, the Scales of Psychological Well-Being and the short Well-Being Index of WHO) (Brani, Hefferon, Lomas, Ivtzan, & Painter, 2014;Hanley, Mehling, & Garland, 2017;Köteles et al, 2012;Sági, Szekeres, & Köteles, 2012;Tihanyi, Böőr, Emanuelsen, & Köteles, 2016). For example, well-being as assessed by the Scales of Psychological Well-Being (Ryff, 1989) showed weak to medium associations with 7 of the 8 sub-scales of the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness scale (Hanley et al, 2017).…”
