The Social Intelligence Test assesses:

1. Social judgments
2. Perception of mental state of speaker
3. Sense of humor
4. Memory for names and faces
5. Observation of human behavior

It is used with older adolescents and adults. The Social Readjustment Rating Scale (a.k.a. Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale) measures stressful life events that an individual has experienced in the last year. Each life change is assigned a point score. Adding up the scores gives a total. It is more useful as an information-gathering tool than proof of stress level.
