Healthy Aging Index Questionnaire — Longevity and Aging Assessment
Multiple-choice survey evaluating key domains of healthy aging such as mobility, lifestyle, and mental well-being.
The Healthy Aging Index Questionnaire is a concise, evidence-informed multiple-choice survey designed to evaluate key domains of healthy aging and longevity. This Healthy Aging Index, part of our Longevity and Aging resources, measures mobility, lifestyle habits, nutrition, sleep, mental well-being, social engagement, and preventive care to give you a comprehensive snapshot of your aging health. Taking this test helps identify strengths and areas for improvement so you can adopt targeted strategies to age better and live longer.
By completing the Healthy Aging Index Questionnaire you will receive a numeric score that reflects your overall healthy aging status. This questionnaire is ideal for adults interested in longevity planning, preventive health measures, and sustainable lifestyle changes. The results inform actionable recommendations across exercise, diet, sleep, stress management, and social connections, helping you prioritize the most impactful steps for long-term wellbeing and vitality.
How often do you engage in moderate-intensity aerobic exercise (e.g., brisk walking) for at least 30 minutes?
Regular aerobic activity supports cardiovascular health and longevity.
How often do you perform strength training or resistance exercises (e.g., weights, bodyweight) each week?
Strength training helps maintain muscle mass and functional independence as you age.
How would you describe your typical daily diet?
A balanced, nutrient-dense diet supports metabolic health and longevity.
On average, how many hours of quality sleep do you get per night?
Consistent restorative sleep supports cognitive and physical recovery.

Effective stress management protects long-term brain and heart health.
How connected are you with family, friends, or community groups?
Social engagement is linked to resilience, cognitive health, and longevity.
Do you attend regular preventive health check-ups and recommended screenings (age-appropriate)?
Preventive care enables early detection and better outcomes for age-related conditions.
How often do you engage in activities that challenge your brain (e.g., learning, puzzles, new skills)?
Cognitive stimulation helps maintain memory and processing speed with age.
Which statement best describes your use of tobacco, excessive alcohol, or recreational drugs?
Lower substance use is associated with reduced disease risk and better aging outcomes.
How easily can you perform daily tasks (e.g., walking, climbing stairs, carrying groceries) without assistance?

Frequently asked questions
The Healthy Aging Index Questionnaire is a short multiple-choice survey that measures important domains of healthy aging — including mobility, lifestyle habits, nutrition, sleep, mental well-being, social engagement, and preventive care — to give a combined score reflecting your current aging health.
Your final score is calculated by summing the numeric values assigned to each selected option across all questions. The total ranges from 0 to 40, with higher scores indicating healthier aging behaviors and functional status.
Retake the questionnaire every 3–6 months to monitor changes and track progress after implementing lifestyle or medical interventions. Frequent reassessment can help you stay accountable and adjust strategies for better long-term results.
No. This questionnaire is a screening and self-assessment tool designed to guide healthy aging behaviors. It does not replace personalized medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Consult healthcare professionals for tailored recommendations or if you have specific health concerns.
If your score falls in the 0–15 range, focus on small, sustainable changes: increase physical activity gradually, improve dietary quality, prioritize sleep, manage stress, and connect with healthcare providers for preventive care. Start with one or two achievable goals and build from there.
The questionnaire is best suited for adults interested in longevity and healthy aging, particularly middle-aged and older adults. Younger adults can also use it to establish strong preventive habits, but some items and screening recommendations are age-specific.
