The Life Effectiveness Questionnaire was developed by James Neill and Garry Rich‎ards of Outward Bound Australia in the 1980’s. Since that time‚ it has become one of the leading tools to measure growth and outcomes in outdoor adventure education programs. Outward Bound Australia uses LEQ to measure the growth in student self-perceptions on its programs. A number of versions of this tool exist and are adapted to specific client groups.
The nine domains of life effectiveness are:
  • Time Management
  • Social Competence
  • Achievement Motivation
  • Intellectual Flexibility
  • Task Leadership
  • Emotional Control
  • Active Initiative
  • Self Confidence
  • Locus of Control
