Loneliness is a painful effect probably universally experienced but which has been long neglected in the psychological literature. This study is an extension of the work begun by Rosalee Bradley in developing a self-report instrument for measuring loneliness. It tests the hypothesis that subjects who score higher differ significantly from those scoring low on the loneliness scale on mood: anxiety, depression, anger, vigor, fatigue, confusion, and differ significantly in self-concept as well. Results using data of 208 subjects on the Profile of Mood States, Tennessee Self-Concept Scale, and Bradley Loneliness Scale support this hypothesis and also support the construct validity of the Bradley Loneliness Scale.
孤独是一种可能普遍存在的痛苦影响，但在心理学文献中却长期被忽视。本研究是罗莎莉·布拉德利所开展工作的延伸，她致力于开发一种用于测量孤独感的自我报告工具。该研究检验了这样一个假设：在孤独量表上得分较高的受试者与得分较低的受试者在情绪（焦虑、抑郁、愤怒、活力、疲劳、困惑）方面存在显著差异，并且在自我概念方面也存在显著差异。使用208名受试者在情绪状态剖面图、田纳西自我概念量表和布拉德利孤独量表上的数据所得到的结果支持了这一假设，同时也支持了布拉德利孤独量表的结构效度。
