Instructions:
This scale is made up of a list of statements each of which may or may not be true about you. For each statement we would like you to circle probably TRUE (PT) if the statement is true about you or probably false (PF) if the statement if not true about you.
You may find that many of the statements are neither clearly true nor clearly false. In these cases, try to decide quickly whether probably true or probably false is most descriptive of you. Although some questions will be difficult to answer, it is important that you pick one alternative or the other. Remember to circle only one go the alternatives for each statement.
Please read each item quickly but carefully before responding. Remember that this is not a test and there are no right or wrong answers.
