The Fetzer Institute is committed to supporting the development of a vibrant scientific field of research into human love and compassion. In addition to providing direct research support, the Fetzer Institute looks for opportunities to provide resources to develop the research field.

Below is a listing of self report measures that may be appropriate for researchers examining issues around love and compassion. It is intended as a resource for researchers, especially those new to this field.

Matthew Feinberg and Robb Willer, University of California, Berkeley, prepared the guide and we are grateful for their services. We are also grateful to those authors who gave their permission to post their research measure on this website. Please contact the authors directly for questions and additional information.
