The relationship of various measures of time urgency to indices of physical health

Article Abstract:

The 2-item impatience subscale of the Irritability and Impatience Scale constitutes the instrument of choice for assessing time urgency due to its relation to noncardiovascular health. This is because the 2-item impatience subscale of the Irritability and Impatience Scale correlated with health indices in the manner as the complete Irritability and Impatience Scale and the Time Urgency/Perpetual Activation scale. Whether anger and time urgency constitutes a separate or a single factor is still in question.
