Zook, Avery, II; Sipps, Gary J.

Journal of Clinical Psychology, v41 n2 p236-38 Mar 1985

Presents a cross-validation of Reynolds' short form of the Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability Scale (N=233). Researchers administered 13 items as a separate entity, calculated Cronbach's Alpha for each sex, and computed test-retest correlation for one group. Concluded that the short form is a viable alternative. (Author/NRB)
