这篇文章描述了一个积极的心理态度的清单，有潜在的相关健康结果和它的初步测试慢性疼痛患者的验证。该量表涉及两个态度域：(1)生活目标和满意度；(2)在潜在压力情况下的自信心。它还提供总分。采用因子分析开发的量表具有较强的内部信度和并发效度。初步测试表明，这些量表的积极变化与慢性疼痛患者健康状况的积极变化相关。多元回归分析表明，这些积极心理态度与健康状况的相互作用并不能完全解释消极心理态度与健康状况的相互作用。
This article describes the validation of an Inventory of Positive Psychological Attitudes that has potential relevance to health outcomes and its preliminary testing with chronic pain patients. The inventory taps two attitudinal domains: (1) life purpose and satisfaction and (2) self-confidence during potentially stressful situations. It also provides a total score. The inventory scales, developed using factor analysis, were found to have a strong degree of internal reliability and concurrent validity. Preliminary testing suggested that positive change on these scales correlates with positive changes in the health status of chronic pain patients. Multiple regression analyses suggested that the interactions of these positive psychological attitudes with health status are not fully accounted for by the interactions of negative psychological attitudes with health status.
