Scoring the PALMS-E
IN the PALMS-Extreme, there are TEN motives. Each motive is measured by FIVE items. The are NO reversed items. The items that score on each motive are listed below. To get a score for each motive, add up the ratings (1 to 5) for each motive. The total for each motive must be between the lowest score of 5 (5 items x 1 strongly disagree = 5) and 25 (5 items x 5 strongly agree = 25). Thus, 5 is the lowest score possible on a motive, while 25 is the highest score possible. If you have a total score on any motive that is lower than 5 or higher than 25, you have made an error. Please recheck your scoring.
