How might you test whether individuals differ in their threshold to show an
emotional (or neural) response?

How do the BIS (punishment sensitivity) and BAS (reward sensitivity) map onto
the consensual model of T&P?
Are they synonymous with
N/NE and E/PE?

measures of T&P?

In Summary
Trait BIS: Emotional States
Influences NA (state) via differential reactivity to
negative events
Reactive
Trait BAS: Behavior Emotion
Influences PA via differential exposure to positive
events
Positive events may be less likely to occur without
active initiation
Positive events must be sought out, and the BAS
regulates approach (appetitive motivation; wanting)

Question
#1
Contrary to Gable, other research indicates that individuals
with high levels of N/NE encounter (or create/evoke) more
frequent negative life events and daily stressors (Magnus et al. 1993; Ormel &
Wohlfarth, 1991; Affleck et al. 1994; Bolger & Schilling 1991; Bolger & Zuckerman 1995; David et al 1997; Gunthert et al 1999; Suls et

The Scales
BIS
Even if something bad is about to happen to me, I rarely experience fear or
nervousness.
I feel pretty worried or upset when I think or know somebody is angry at me.
If I think something unpleasant is going to happen I usually get pretty
"worked up."
I feel worried when I think I have done poorly at something important.
I have very few fears compared to my friends.
I worry about making mistakes.
Criticism or scolding hurts me quite a bit.
Notice
1. Many of the items are focused on situations where overt threat is
absent, distal, or ambiguous
2. None directly indexes avoidance or inhibition, contrary to The
Theory
BAS
I go out of my way to get things I want.
When I'm doing well at something I love to keep at it.
I'm always willing to try something new if I think it will be fun.
When I get something I want, I feel excited and energized.
When I want something I usually go all-out to get it.
I will often do things for no other reason than that they might be fun.
If I see a chance to get something I want I move on it right away.
When I see an opportunity for something I like I get excited right away.
I often act on the spur of the moment.
When good things happen to me, it affects me strongly.
I crave excitement and new sensations.
When I go after something I use a "no holds barred" approach.
It would excite me to win a contest.
