Twenty-three High-scorers and 18 Low-scorers on the Dogmatism Scale were observed in interactions with at least three groups of patients. Results showed that Low-scorers tended toward Independence Training and Communication with patients, while High-scorers tended toward Giving Orders and Doing-To-and-For the patients; and that Low-scorers were promoted and High-scorers were fired significantly more often. In spite of various uncontrolled variables, the results constitute a tentative indication that Rokeach's Dogmatism Scale might be a valuable addition to the battery commonly used to select psychiatric nursing personnel
