Sense of Belonging Scale

The Sense of Belonging Scale is a psychological assessment tool designed to gauge an individual’s perception of belonging within a specific context reported, such as a social group or environment. It evaluates factors like inclusion, valued involvement, and social connectedness to determine the extent of one’s sense of belonging.

Evaluating a sense of belonging involves administering the Sense of Belonging Scale, where individuals rate statements on a 5-point Likert scale. The scores are then analyzed to assess the individual’s overall feeling of inclusion and connection within their environment.

The General Belongingness Scale is a broader assessment tool used to measure an individual’s overall sense of belonging across various contexts. It captures the fundamental need for social connections and the feeling of being part of a community or group.
