HELP NOTES for Using SHAQ:

Success and Happiness Attributes Questionnaire

[FOR MORE COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS, GO TO:  https://home.csulb.edu/~tstevens/success/SHAQ-instrs.htm ]

>>>> CURRENTLY THE ONLY WAY TO COMPLETE SHAQ and have it SCORED AUTOMATICALLY is to

1. Download the 2 files: RunSHAQ.exe  and  RunSHAQ.exe.lwheap  to a Windows based PC (Personal Computer).  It only takes moments to download the 2 files.

2. CLICK on the downloaded file RunSHAQ.exe to RUN the SHAQ--Success and Happiness Attributes Questionnaire

>>> USING THE WINDOWS APP VERSION 1. Automatically administers and scores SHAQ and 2. Provides a complete copy of all your question and scale results--including yur HQ (Happiness Quotient) Score.  It also provides links for self-help information to improve those scores.

>>>> IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE-BUT NOT RECOMMENDED--TO TAKE SHAQ MANUALLY OR ADMINISTER A PAPER COPY TO A GROUP

 However, it is strongly recommended that in all cases, you use the computer file version above.  Otherwise, scoring SHAQ will becom a very time-consuming process, and the results you receive will be much less complete!  A simple possible alternative is just to take a paper version of SHAQ and NOT score it.  Much of the value of SHAQ comes from just taking SHAQ, since the users can SEE DESIREABLE AND UNDESIREABLE ALTERNATIVES for themselves as they take SHAQ. Afterward they can read the SHAQ ADMINISTRATION MANUAL for more information.

TO MANUALLY ADMINISTER & SCORE SHAQ USE THE FOLLOWING DOWNLOADABLE pdf files.

1. Copy or Download the SHAQ QUESTION pdf file that you can administer.
