AIS

Description
The Acceptance of Illness Scale (AIS) was developed by Felton and Revenson. The scale consists of eight items, which measure patient coping strategies with the disease in terms of accommodating limitations imposed by the illness, negative self-value caused by the disease, and thoughts that others are uncomfortable being around patients because of the disease. The patient rates each item 1 to 5, where 1 represents full agreement and 5 represents full disagreement. This generates a scale ranging from 8 to 40 points; a score of 8 indicates extremely low acceptance of the disease, and 40 extremely high acceptance.
