Note. B11 Tot = BIS-11 total score; att = attention; mot = motor; sc = self control; cc = cognitive complexity; per = perseverance; ci = cognitive instability; NP = nonplanning; fin = finance; nfc = need for cognition. BIS-11 first order scales are abbreviated in lowercase while second order scales are abbreviated in upper case. All correlations significant at p <. 01 (excepting BIS11 cognitive complexity × cognitive instability).
