    The document summarizes a 14-item scale called the Maladaptive Daydreaming Scale. The scale measures different aspects of maladaptive daydreaming such as how often physical behaviors accompany daydreaming, how difficult it is to control daydreaming, how distressed one feels about time spent daydreaming, the benefits and enjoyment of daydreaming, and how much daydreaming interferes with daily functioning, academic or career goals, and overall life goals. A scree plot is also shown to analyze the item responses on the scale.
