概要	The Existential Well-Being Scale (EWB), developed by Paloutzian and Ellison in 1982, is a 10-item self-report measure of existential meaning and well-being: the sense that one's life has purpose, direction, and intrinsic value. Derived from the larger Spiritual Well-Being Scale (which includes religious well-being), the EWB focuses on the secular dimension of well-being—not faith or religious conviction, but existential satisfaction and sense of purpose. It has become widely used in psychology and health research to assess meaning, life satisfaction, and resilience factors protective against depression, anxiety, and suicide.	The FACIT-Sp, developed by Peterman and colleagues in 2002, is a 12-item self-report measure of spiritual well-being specifically designed for people with serious illness, particularly cancer. It assesses two dimensions: meaning and peace (the sense that life has purpose and harmony despite illness) and faith (spiritual or religious trust). Part of the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) suite, the FACIT-Sp has become a standard measure in oncology research and palliative care, predicting quality of life, treatment outcomes, and psychological well-being in medical populations.
