Inventories designed to measure neuroticism are similar in form and content to inventories used to measure symptoms or subjective well-being. In addition, it is not clear to what extent traits as well as a person's present state explain the variance of such measures. Three inventories--the Neuroticism Scale from Wilde's Amsterdamse Biografische Vragenlijst, Bradburn's Affect Balance Scale and a Symptom Measure--were administered three times in order to study their reliability, stability and relation with psychosocial stress and life events. Major differences between inventories were not found. The results favoured the trait position.
用于测量神经质的量表在形式和内容上与用于测量症状或主观幸福感的量表相似。此外，特质以及一个人的当前状态在多大程度上解释了这些测量结果的差异尚不清楚。为了研究它们的信度、稳定性以及与心理社会压力和生活事件的关系，对三个量表——来自怀尔德的《阿姆斯特丹传记问卷》的神经质量表、布拉德伯恩的情感平衡量表和一个症状量表——进行了三次施测。未发现量表之间的主要差异。结果支持特质观点。
