Note: for Males: the upper score reported is 81.4 (100%) - in this script: anything above 81.4 receives a rank of 100% guilt: Guilt Score = mean score of all 10 guilt (G) questions (0-100) guiltPercentile: the percentile of the Guilt Score based on normative data published in Table 3, p. 516, in Benton et al (1998) and linear interpolation for the gender indicated (!default is female in this script!) Note: for Males: the upper score reported is 70.6 (100%) and for Females it is 79.5 (100%)- in this script: anything above these scores receives a rank of 100% functional: Functional Score = mean score of all 4 functional (F) questions (0-100) functionalPercentile: the percentile of the Functional Score based on normative data published in Table 3, p. 516, in Benton et al (1998) and linear interpolation for the gender indicated (!default is female in this script!)
