Using a method of measurement derived from behavioral decision theory, 73 undergraduate students projected themselves alternatively into roles of “hypothetical subordinates” and “hypothetical bosses.” Role familiarity correlated significantly with only one of the focal within-subject measures and the sign of this correlation was opposite to the hypothesis. The results support the robustness of measures generated by this method
