Instructions

We are interested how you feel about diabetes and other illnesses. On the following pages, you will find pairs of

words with opposite meaning (for example, hot - cold) at different ends of a scale. You are asked to place a check

mark (X) along the scale. Place the mark at a point that best describes how you feel about the word(s) shown at

the top of the page. There are no correct or incorrect answers.

Below are examples of how to use the scales. In the sample, we ask you to rate "Diabetes Foot Care".

If you feel very close to one end of the scale, you should mark the scale:

Constrained __X_ : ____ : ____ : ____ : ____ : ____ : ____ Free

or

Constrained ____ : ____ : ____ : ____ : ____ : ____ : __X__ Free

If you feel quite close to one end of the scale you should mark the scale:

Weak ___ : __X_ : ____ : ____ : ____ : ____ : ____ Strong

or

If you feel slightly close to one end of the scale you should mark the scale:

If you feel neutral on the scale you should mark the scale:

Worthless ___ : _ __ : ____ : _ X_ : ____ : ____ : ____ Valuable

Important

1) Place your mark in the middle of the spaces.

2) Be sure to check every scale (there are 9 scales per page).

3) Place only 1 mark for a scale.

Please mark each item as a separate and independent judgement. Do not worry or puzzle over individual items.

Do not try to remember how you marked earlier items even if they seem similar. We want your first impression or

immediate feelings about each word. There are no right or wrong answers. Please complete all of the pages, even

if you do not have personal experience with the illness or the condition described on the page.
