Exaltation Proneness Scale Test - Symptoms and Signs
This brief self-report measure is designed to screen for a tendency toward intense, rapidly shifting emotional experiences. The Exaltation Proneness Scale provides a quick estimate of emotional excitability and perceived affective instability in everyday functioning.
The instrument consists of 12 items and typically requires about 3 minutes to complete. It may be used as a rapid indicator of prominent emotional reactivity, including sharp affective surges, persistent re-experiencing of unresolved feelings, internal tension and frustration, nonspecific anxiety, and mood variability. Albert Mehrabian is commonly cited as the author.
The Exaltation Proneness Scale is intended for use as a non-diagnostic screening tool and should be interpreted in the context of clinical interview and other assessment data, particularly when elevated emotional responding could reflect situational stress, personality style, or psychopathology.
