Questions and instructions

Question pretext
People are different from each other. When you answer these questions, think about how you compare to other people, both at work, if you work, and at home. We understand that some of the questions seem alike. Please understand that we are asking these questions to people all over the world, and we want to make sure that we ask them in every way possible. Rate each of the items below by pointing at the response that best describes you. Do not spend a lot of time thinking about the items—just give your first response. There are no right or wrong answers.

- Interviewer: show card #5 . Make sure that respondent understands the meaning of the scale in show card #5.
- Read description to respondent. Have respondent point to their answer on card #5. Circle the indicated response in cells below.
- If the respondent does not answer a question, leave it until the end and then come back and try again. If finally the question is not answered, mark a line across all 4 answer blocks on that line.
- If respondent asks for explanation examples, say "I'm not supposed to try to explain these statements. Just think what the statement means to you."
