Dear Jeremy,
About a year ago I completed my Masters thesis, and used a Likert variation
of the EPQ-R's extraversion and neuroticism scales (long form).
I've revised the items (i.e. instead of "does your mood often go up and
down" the S was asked to state his/hers agreement on a 5-point scale -
ranging from strongly disagree to completely agree - with the sentence "your
mood often go up and down").
Over 156 Ss I obtained satisfying reliabilities: .82 for the extraversion
scale and .91 for the neuroticism scale.
I must mention, though, that I used a Hebrew version of the questionnaire.
Hope it helps,
Liad.
