more on revised self construal

The rejection avoidance items are a new idea but the authors need to work on these items.  First off there are only 3 items which makes it hard to consider validity.  One of the items has poor face value.  It is very long and seems to be double barreled.  But the authors are on the right track.

Rejection avoidance scale
I worry about what people think of me, and always feel that someone is watching me 0.90
I find myself being concerned about what other people think of me 0.80
Sometimes when I do things I get so anxious and confused thinking about how everything
will turn out that I have trouble even getting started 0.44


This third item sounds like procrastination rather than rejection avoidance.
