Abstract
The present study examined the correlations of scores on the Affect Intensity Measure and the Self-consciousness Scale. Positive correlations between dispositional levels of affect intensity, private self-consciousness, and public self-consciousness were obtained for 81 undergraduate women but not for the 46 men. The results are interpreted as further evidence of the validity of the Affect Intensity Measure.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
