The Religious Orientation Scale: Review and Meta-Analysis of Social Desirability Effects.

Trimble, Douglas E.

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v57 n6 p970-86 Dec 1997

Studies of the reliability and validity of scores on the Religious Orientation Scale (G. Allport and J. Ross, 1967) were reviewed with respect to social desirability. Meta analysis shows that one scale correlates with social desirability, but another does not, suggesting that partialing out this variance is not recommended. (SLD)
