Description
Heba Yaagoub AlNujaidi and co-authors checked the content validity of a new wellness scale for Saudi women in 2026. Wellness means distinct things across cultures, and Saudi women face social and faith factors that shape it. Existing scales often miss that cultural fit.
The scale, called HER-WELL, grew from interviews and a prior review that found eight wellness dimensions. Experts from several fields judged an initial pool of 71 items for clarity, relevance, and need. Their feedback trimmed the scale to 60 items across the eight dimensions. The authors present the step as the base for later statistical testing of the scale.
