Table 3
Correlations among total BADS scores and subscales with concurrent measures. Note: BDI-II = Beck Depression Inventory – II. Brooding = Brooding subscale of Ruminative Response Scale. AAQ-II = Acceptance and Action Questionnaire – II. ATQ = Automatic Thought Questionnaire. BIS = Behavioral Inhibition Systems subscale of Behavioral Inhibition Systems and Behavioral Activation Systems scale. BAS/Drive = Behavioral Activation Systems Drive subscale of Behavioral Inhibition Systems and Behavioral Activation Systems scale. BAS/RR = Behavioral Activation Systems Reward subscale of Behavioral Inhibition Systems and Behavioral Activation Systems scale. BADS Total = BADS Total score. Activation = Activation subscale. Avoidance/R. = Avoidance/Rumination subscale. Work/S Impair. = Work/School Impairment. Social Impair. = Social Impairment. Behavioral Av. = Behavioral Avoidance.
