AS, avoidance style; ICS, Impulsivity/Carelessness Style; n/a, not applicable; NPO, negative problem orientation; PPO, positive problem orientation; RPS, rational problem-solving; SPSI-R, Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised; α, Cronbach’s alpha, r, Pearson’s correlations. All correlations were significant at p < 0.001. * N = 1,069 for total sample internal consistency at T1; N = 279 for comparison sample T1-T2 test-retest reliability. **N = 826 for total sample internal consistency at T1; N = 204 for comparison sample T1-T2 test-retest reliability. ***N = 243 for total sample internal consistency at T1; N = 75 for comparison sample T1-T2 test-retest reliability.
