What are people's levels of habitual behavior?

Creature of Habit Scale is a 27-question measure of people's levels of habitual behavior. This survey can be used to explore relationships between habitual behavior and addiction, impulsivity, and decision-making. Past research suggests that personality traits such as impulsivity and compulsivity play a significant role in habitual tendencies (Ersche et. al, 2019).

What data is collected? How is it scored?
The following variables are recorded:

• COHS_routine Higher scores mean participants have regular, step-by-step habits done the same way every time.
• COHS_automaticity Higher scores mean participants often do things automatically without thinking.

Raw data: 27 questions combined to make 2 variables (routine and automaticity). The variables' score ranges from 16-80 and 11-50.

Calculation:
The subscores are determined by summing the scores of the questions belonging to each variable. The Likert scale ranges from 1 ("strongly disagree") to 5 ("strongly agree"), so the average of the scores for each question will also range from 1-5.

• COHS_routine: Sum of questions 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 20, 22, 23, 24, 27.
• COHS_automaticity: Sum of questions 3, 5, 8, 9, 11, 16, 19, 21, 23, 25, 26.
