QUESTIONNAIRE SET-UP & SCORING
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The questionnaire contains 30 questions. Each question is presented with 4 answer choices
(-> "Rarely/Never", "Occasionally", "Often", "Almost Always/Always").

Each of the questions belongs to 6 subscales (derived from 6 first order factors and 3 first order factors)

1. AttentionalFacet I: 1, 2R, 3, 4R, 5
2. AttentionalFacet2: 6, 7, 8
3. MotorFacetI: 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15
4. MotorFacetII: 16, 17, 18, 19R
5. PlanningFacetI: 20R, 21R, 22R, 23R, 24R, 25
6. PlanningFacetII: 26R, 27R, 28, 29, 30R
(R = reversed scoring, depends on wording)

Scoring: on a 4-point scale
"1" for least Impulsive choice to "4" for most Impulsive choice
=> Minimum Score: 30
=> Maximum Score: 120
