Dimensions of Civil Liberties and Personality: Relationships for Measures of Tolerance and Complexity

Gaugler, Edward A.; Zalkind, Sheldon S.

Journal of Social Issues, 31, 2, 93-110, Spr 75

Groups of individuals classified as "constricted" and "non constricted" according to three personality scores - anger expression, independence, and anomie - were contrasted on civil liberties attitude dimensions. It was found that "constricted" individuals do not have a simpler conceptual structure for those attitudes than do less "constricted" individuals. (Author/JM)
