Simplified scaling for life change events.

R H Rahe, D H Ryman, H W Ward.   

Abstract

A relative simple interval scaling method for adjustment to life change events was compared to the original, more difficult, proportinate scaling method. Ranking of life events by both methods was extremely similar. Evidence also was found that today Americans scale several minor life change events as requiring greater adjustment than that estimated for these events a decade earlier.
