Welcome to the ICAS Pulse Survey
In the following pages, you will find questions relating to a range of lifestyle variables. Some of them may strike you as unusual or personal in nature. However, when combined, this collection of questions allows ICAS to provide a meaningful and incisive assessment of your personal circumstances. For this reason, we would strongly encourage you to answer all questions. However, you are under no obligation to answer everything in this questionnaire and mandatory questions appear with a red asterisk after them. Please also be aware that if you choose not to answer several questions, we may not be able to provide feedback on some or all sections in your personal report.
Because this is a personal assessment, ICAS undertakes to treat your responses in the strictest of confidence. To ensure this, no more than two people within ICAS will have access to your completed questionnaire or report, and ICAS undertakes not to disclose any personal details to any third party without your prior consent.
To further ensure your confidentiality, this file is saved in a password-protected format on submission.
The questionnaire should take between 15 and 20 minutes to complete. To enter responses, use your mouse to click on the pull down menus or click on your chosen answer using the buttons provided. For answers that require that you type a number or other text, click on the space provided and type your response.
Kind regards The ICAS Well-Being Team |
