Relationship between Individual Social Desirability Ratings and Hand Acquiescence and I-E Scores
The relationship between two measures of individual social desirability ratings and the test scores of college students was determined for Hand's Acquiescence Scale and the I-E Scale. A measure of the imbalance of intensity of social desirability on the two subscales of each test was significantly related to the scores on Hand's Acquiescence Scale ( r = .38, p < .001) and to the scores on the I-E Scale ( r = .82, p < .001). A measure of the imbal…

Dogmatism, Defense Mechanisms, and Social Desirability Responding
The influence of social desirability responding on the correlation between the Dogmatism and Repression-Sensitization Scales was examined. A positive relationship was found between these two scales ( r = .44, p < .001). This relationship decreased only slightly when a partial correlation was used to remove the influence of social desirability responding ( r = .40, p < .001). In addition, correcting for attenuation in the controlled variable still…
Independence of Hand's Acquiescence and Social Desirability Scales
Hand's Acquiescence Scale (HAcq) and Hand's Social Desirability Scale (HSD) have been reported to be independent measures (Hand, 1964). However, there are 30 items common to both scales. An abbreviated HAcq (AHAcq) was constructed by removing from HAcq the items which occurred on both HAcq and HSD. The correlation between HAcq and HSD was −0.10 ( p > .10). However, the correlation between AHAcq and HSD was −0.19 ( p < .01). These results indicate…
Comparison of the Three-Decision and Conventional Multiple-Choice Tests
Two multiple-choice tests, one with five alternatives for each question and one with four alternatives for each question, were scored as a Three-decision Multiple-choice Test and as a conventional multiple-choice test. In addition, the five-alternative test was scored as a modified conventional multiple-choice test by giving half marks if the correct alternative was picked as the second choice. The different scoring systems were evaluated by corr…
Determination of the Chance Score on the Three-Decision Multiple-Choice Test
The chance score on the Three-decision Multiple-choice Test was determined theoretically. The theoretical predictions were then tested empirically by using a table of random numbers to answer 100 sets of 20 multiple-choice questions like a three-decision multiple-choice test would be answered. The results indicated that the average chance score on the Three-decision Multiple-choice Test is over two times as large as the average chance score on th…
