On this page there are several questions that we want you to answer. Read each sentence carefully and tell us how much it has happened to you in the last month. If it never happens to you, circle the word “never.” If it sometimes happens to you, circle the word “sometimes.” If it happens to you almost always, circle the word “always.” This is not a test, so there are no right and wrong answers.
