Earlier studies in this Journal failed to adduce convincing evidence that Christie and Budnitzsky's 20-item forced-choice anxiety scale reduces social desirability effects otherwise assumed to be present in Bendig's 20-item (True-False) version of Taylor's Manifest Anxiety Scale. Using 70 heterogeneous psychiatric patients as Ss, this research shows a correlation of .92 between test scores on the two scales, which value is significantly larger than twice observed for normal control Ss. Our earlier impressions remain unchanged
