Personal and Social Correlates of the "Closed Mind" among 16-Year-Old Adolescents in England.
Francis, Leslie J.
Educational Studies, v23 n3 p429-37 Nov 1997
Compares what is known about key personal and social correlates of scores on Rokeach dogmatism scales with findings from a new study of English 16-year-old pupils. Demonstrates that higher dogmatism scores are associated with lower IQ scores, lower social-class backgrounds, higher neuroticism scores, higher lie-scale scores, and being male. (DSK)
