Scoring<\/h2>\n

Scores from these 21 items can be summed to compute a global temptations scale.
\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t
Four subscales exist for this scale:
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>Items<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Peer Pressure<\/td>2, 5, 8, 10, 13, 15, 18, 20<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Negative Affect<\/td>3, 6, 9, 11, 16<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Positive\/Social<\/td>1, 4, 7, 12<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Social Anxiety<\/td>14, 17, 19, 21<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Two comparable 8 item short forms have been constructed to compute global temptations
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Form A<\/td>4, 6, 7, 13, 14, 16, 18, 21<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Form B<\/td>1, 3, 8, 9, 12, 15, 17, 19<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong> This instrument has been developed on non-dependent drinkers and should not be used with dependent populations until further psychometric validations have been conducted. Information regarding the reliability and validity of this instrument can be obtained from Dr. Maddock<\/a>.<\/small><\/p>\n
