Schacter-Singer Two-factor theory of emotion Copyright © Allyn & Bacon, 2009 The Social Readjustment Rating Scale The Social Readjustment Rating Scale If your score is 300 or more, statistically you stand an almost 80% chance of getting sick in the near future. If you score is 150 to 299, the chances are about 50%. At less than 150, about 30%.
