Dear All,
Can anyone help? I'm starting to research the relationships between the
strength of a person's convictions and other personality variables
(particularly schizotypy), and I would welcome your advice on scales for
measuring belief strength. The only one I've come across is the Rokeach
Dogmatism Scale, which seems somewhat of its time and has also been
criticised (e.g. by Krosnick for measuring acquiescence). There are scales
which measure other aspects of belief, such as spirituality and political
attitudes, and recommendations on which of these are best would be great
too, but I'm really hoping you can tell me what is the best scale around
that taps the same kind of domain as Rokeach did.
Many thanks!
Kathleen
