16 Scoring The Life Change Index The body is a finely timed instrument that does not like surprises. Any sudden change stimuli which affects the body, or the reordering of important routines that the body become used to, can cause needless stress, throwing your whole physical being into turmoil. The following chart will give you some idea of how to informally score yourself on Social Readjustment Scale. Since being healthy is the optimum state you want to achieve, being sick is the state of being you most want to avoid. Life Change Units Likelihood Of Illness In Near Future 300+ about 80 percent about 50 percent less than 150 about 30 percent The higher your life change score, the harder you have to work to get yourself back into a state of good health. T.H.Holmes and T.H. Rahe. "The Social Readjustment Rating Scale," Journal of Psychosomatic Research. 11:213, 1967.
