Which of the following dimensions is NOT included in the 8 Dimensions of Wellness?

  1. Spiritual

  2. Social

  3. Cognitive

  4. Physical

The correct answer is: Cognitive

The 8 Dimensions of Wellness encompass various aspects of an individual’s health and well-being, each contributing to overall quality of life. These dimensions include Physical, Emotional, Social, Spiritual, Occupational, Environmental, Financial, and Intellectual wellness. Cognitive wellness, while an important concept related to mental functions and processing information, is not explicitly one of the 8 Dimensions of Wellness. Instead, Cognitive aspects can be indirectly addressed through the Intellectual dimension, which focuses on engaging in creative and stimulating activities to enhance mental functioning. Thus, the correct choice highlights the distinction that while cognitive health is vital, it falls under the broader category of Intellectual wellness, making it the dimension not listed among the recognized 8 Dimensions of Wellness.
