PSYC 2600 Chapter : BIS BAS.docx
Document Summary
Each item of this questionnaire is a statement that a person may either agree with or disagree with. For each item, indicate how much you agree or disagree with what the item says. Please respond to all the items; do not leave any blank. Please be as accurate and honest as you can be. Respond to each item as if it were the only item. Items other than 2 and 22 are reverse-scored. Bas reward responsiveness: 4, 7, 14, 18, 23. Bis: 2, 8, 13, 16, 19, 22, 24. The fact that there are three bas-related scales and only one bis-related scales was not planned or theoretically motivated. The factors emerged empirically, from an item set that was intended to capture diverse manifestations of the bas, according to various theoretical statements. It is likely that a broader sampling of items on the bis side would also have resulted in more than one scale.
