A researcher developed a questionnaire to assess impulsiveness among adults. In a journal article, she later presented evidence that college students tend to get essentially the same score if they take the test twice, two months apart. However, when a reader looks at the sample questionnaire items she included in the article, it seems that they relate more to whether a person is sociable, outgoing, and fun than to whether an individual is impulsive.
