Abstract
Our novel wellness profile called OLDWELLACTIVE points out that older people's own voice is a reliable estimate of their wellbeing and a concordance was shown between self-expressed and evaluated rates in most variables of wellbeing. A self-estimated wellness assessment of older people can be used as an aid for evaluation of their wellbeing and as a “short battery of older people's wellbeing” for population based strategies in elderly care.
