The Multi-Dimensional Blood/Injury Phobia Inventory: Its Psychometric Properties and Relationship With Disgust Propensity and Disgust Sensitivity [PDF]
Journal of Anxiety Disorders, 2011 The Multi-Dimensional Blood Phobia Inventory (MBPI; Wenzel & Holt, 2003) is the only instrument available that assesses both disgust and anxiety for blood-phobic stimuli. As inflated levels of disgust propensity (i.e., tendency to experience disgust more readily) are often observed in blood phobia, the MBPI appears a promising instrument for disgust ...
