Abstract: Until recently, researchers have been combining the Ryft’s Psychological Wellbeing Scale (PWBS) and Ellison and Paloutzian’s Spiritual Wellbeing Scale (SWBS) in an attempt to measure what can be considered psycho-spiritual wellbeing. This attempt makes psycho-spiritual wellbeing appear fragmented. This necessitated the development of the Psycho-Spiritual Wellbeing Scale (P-SWBS) which measures psycho-spiritual wellbeing on the five domains: Self-Awareness, Connectedness, Meaningfulness, Compassion, and Self-Transcendence. The purpose of the study is to ascertain the psychometric properties of the P-SWBS. P-SWBS is found to be highly reliable (25 items; Spearman Brown Coefficient = .876; Guttman Split-Half coefficient = .850; at Cronbach’s Alpha = .916). The P-SWBS is valid on face, content, and criterion levels. Also, validity was based on the significant value obtained by the Sig. (2-tailed) of 0.000
