The Lifestyle Assessment Questionnaire (LAQ) evaluates wellness across which areas?
Answer: Physical, social, emotional, intellectual, occupational, and spiritual domains
The LAQ is a comprehensive wellness tool covering multiple lifestyle dimensions including physical, social, emotional, intellectual, occupational, and spiritual wellness.
When interpreting a client's wellness assessment results, a holistic coach should FIRST:
Answer: Present the results and invite the client to share their own meaning and reaction
Client-centered coaching holds that clients are the experts on their own lives; inviting the client's interpretation honors their autonomy and deepens engagement with the results.
The Emotional Intelligence Appraisal is sometimes used in holistic coaching to assess a client's ability to:
Answer: Recognize, understand, manage, and effectively use emotions
The Emotional Intelligence Appraisal evaluates four EQ skills: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management.
A wellness coach notices that a client scores high on physical wellness but very low on social wellness. This pattern BEST illustrates which concept?
Answer: Domain specificity of wellness, where gains in one area do not automatically transfer to others
Wellness domains are interrelated but not automatically transferable; high functioning in one area does not guarantee wellness in another, highlighting the need for holistic assessment.
The Optimal Living Profile (OLP) differs from many wellness tools because it integrates wellness assessment with:
Answer: Goal-setting and personal values clarification processes
The OLP is designed specifically for coaching contexts, combining wellness profiling with values and goal-setting components to facilitate action-oriented coaching conversations.
Which of the following BEST describes the concept of 'norm-referenced' scoring in a wellness assessment?
Answer: The client's score is interpreted relative to scores from a comparison or reference population
Norm-referenced scoring interprets an individual's results by comparing them to a standardized reference group, showing where the client stands relative to others.
A client completes a wellness wheel self-assessment and rates all dimensions 7 or higher. The coach's BEST next step is to:
Answer: Ask the client to explore what a '10' would look like in each dimension to deepen reflection
Asking what a '10' looks like in each area opens growth-oriented conversation even when scores are high, helping clients identify aspirational goals and untapped potential.
