Mapping Mindsets that Drive Growth, Achievement & Well-Being

The Scale for Predictors of Success, developed by Mansik Shakti Foundation, is a unique psychometric tool designed to evaluate the psychological strengths and internal resources that contribute to success — both in academics and life. Unlike conventional assessments that focus only on mental health risks, this scale measures positive mental health factors and predictive attributes of personal achievement.

This tool is especially valuable for students, young adults, and professionals, helping them gain deeper insight into their motivational patterns, emotional strengths, and resilience capacity.

What It Measures:

The scale evaluates non-cognitive psychological factors that research shows are strongly linked to success and personal growth:

  • Self-confidence and motivation
  • Resilience and grit
  • Optimism and positive self-belief
  • Clarity of goals
  • Emotional regulation and adaptability
  • Problem-solving mindset
  • Sense of purpose

These predictors are measured through a structured self-assessment, and users receive a personal profile report highlighting their areas of strength and opportunities for growth.

Why It Matters

Success is not just academic or financial—it's also emotional and psychological. This scale helps individuals:

  • Recognize their inner drivers
  • Set realistic and meaningful goals
  • Strengthen mindset and habits that support achievement
  • Reflect on personal purpose and life direction

It is also a valuable tool for educators, counselors, and career mentors to understand a student’s psychological assets and offer tailored guidance.

Delivered Digitally via the Relief App

The Scale for Predictors of Success is integrated into the Relief4MentalHealth platform and can be used:

  • Independently for self-discovery
  • Alongside the mental health screening tools
  • As part of career and academic guidance modules

The results are interpreted using a strength-based approach, focusing on empowerment rather than pathology.

By shifting the focus from “what’s wrong” to “what’s strong,” this scale promotes a growth-oriented mindset, which is key to long-term success, emotional wellness, and personal fulfillment.
