Even if you have not done some of these things recently, try to work out how they would have affected you. Use the following scale to choose the most appropriate number for each situation:

Sitting and reading




Watching TV




Sitting, inactive in a public place (e.g., a theater or a meeting)




As a passenger in a car for an hour without a break




Lying down to rest in the afternoon when circumstances permit




Sitting and talking to someone




Sitting quietly after a lunch without alcohol




In a car, while stopped for a few minutes in traffic
