The survey was distributed to members of the general public in Melbourne, Australia and surrounding districts. A scale was also included that measured people's tendency to present themselves in a favourable or socially desirable manner. The scales measured self-esteem, optimism, perceptions of control, perceived stress, positive and negative affect, and life satisfaction.
