Exploratory factorial analysis of Behavioral Activation/Inhibition scales of Chinese military men.

Item	Factor (Chinese undergraduate sample)	Factor loadings	Factor (Chinese military sample)	Factor loadings
2. When I'm doing well at something I love to keep at it.	BASR	0.75	BASR	0.72
4. When I get something I want, I feel excited and energized.	BASR	0.73	BASR	0.74
17. It would excite me to win a contest.	BASR	0.72	BASR	0.58
13. When good things happen to me, it affects me strongly.	BASR	0.72	BIS	0.67
1. I go out of my way to get things I want.	BASD	0.76	BASD	0.71
16. When I go after something I use a “no holds barred” approach.	BASD	0.76	BASF	0.67
6. When I want something I usually go all-out to get it.	BASD	0.62	BASD	0.82
8. If I see a chance to get something I want I move on it right away.	BASD	0.61	BASR	0.61
7. I'm always willing to try something new if I think it will be fun.	BASF	0.67	BASD	0.66
11. I will often do things for no other reason than that they might be fun.	BASF	0.64	BIS	0.59
15. I often act on the spur of the moment.	BASF	0.63	BASF	0.68
10. I crave excitement and new sensations.	BASF	0.50	BASR	0.68
3. When I see an opportunity for something I like I get excited right away.	BASF	0.42	BASR	0.67
5. Criticism or scolding hurts me quite a bit.	BIS	0.67	BIS	0.57
9. I feel pretty worried or upset when I think or know somebody is angry at me.	BIS	0.65	BIS	0.67
18. I worry about making mistakes.	BIS	0.59	BIS	0.69
12. I feel worried when I think I have done poorly at something important.	BIS	0.46	BIS	0.77
14. If I think something unpleasant is going to happen I usually get pretty “worked up.”	BIS	0.43	BIS	0.74

BASD, BAS-Drive scale; BASF, BAS-Fun seeking scale. BASR, BAS-Reward Responsiveness scale. BIS, Behavioral Inhibition Scale. The Chinese undergraduate 4-factor model was applied to the data set.
