The Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory Personality
نویسندگان
چکیده
Below is the information needed to score the Corr-Cooper RST Personality Questionnaire (RST-PQ). Also, included below is text describing important aspects of the questionnaire. Please bear in mind that there are two major levels of the questionnaire: a priori (theoretical) facets and empirically-derived factors, shown below. For your analysis, use the empirically-derived factors, as described below. (Towards the end of this document is some discussion of these a priori facets to give you some sense of how the empirical factors were developed – but for now focus on the factor analytical results.) The empirical factors were developed via exploratory factor analysis and then confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis.
