Add up your scores to measure your behavioural inhibition system (BIS). This system – one of two aspects of Jeffrey Alan Gray’s biopsychological theory of personality – is involved in avoiding things that are boring, painful, new and scary or otherwise unpleasant. The average score is around 18 for men and 21 for women. People with a high score are sensitive to such unpleasantness and go out of their way to avoid it. They also show high levels of anxiety when escape from such a situation is difficult.

测试的分数总和可以看出你的行为抑制系统。这个系统——是杰弗里·艾伦·格雷的生理心理学人格理论两个方面的其中之一——它涉及到，避免那些无聊、令人不痛快的、新遇到的、令人害怕的或者其他不开心的事情。男士的平均分是18分左右，女士为21分左右。得分较高的人对这些负面情绪比较敏感，而且需要找到方法避免这种敏感。当他们发现逃离这种情形很困难时，通常也会表现出更强烈的焦虑感。

Interestingly, two recent studies have found that left-handers score higher on this questionnaire than right-handers. Similarly, left-handed marmosets are more fearful of approaching new food than right-handers and freeze for longer when they hear an eagle. This is because the brain systems responsible for the BIS are largely in right hemisphere, which is dominant in left-handers.

有趣的是，两项较近的研究已经发现，惯用左手的人在这份问卷中的得分要高于惯用右手的人。相似地，惯用左手的小猿在接近新食品时比惯用右手的更加胆怯，听到鹰叫时僵硬的时间更久。这是因为大脑系统对行为抑制系统的反应，更多的是在右脑，而右脑主导左手。
