About Us

Assess your Social Wellness

How connected are you with others? Having strong social connections can help us during difficult times and make life more fun and meaningful.  It involves having positive relationships, communicating effectively, feeling respected and being respectful.

Read the following statements and answer to yourself how much each statement reflects you.

  1. I consciously and continually try to work on behaviors or attitudes that have caused problems in my interactions with others.
  2. In my dating or sexual relationships, I choose partner(s) who respect my wants, needs, and choices.
  3. I feel supported and respected in my close relationships.
  4. I communicate effectively with others, share my views and listen to those of others.
  5. I consider the feelings of others and do not act in hurtful/selfish ways.
  6. I try to see good in my friends and do whatever I can to support them.
  7. I participate in a wide variety of social activities and find opportunities to form new relationships.
  8. I surround myself with friends that have a positive influence on my life.
  9. My friends will come to my aid when I am in need.
  10. I am comfortable talking to other students I do not know particularly well.

If you answer 鈥渟ometimes,鈥� 鈥渞arely,鈥� or 鈥渘ever鈥� for any of the statements, there is room for improvement. You can check out these campus resources for help.
