The Organizational Climate Description Questionnaire (OCDQ) determines the openness or closedness of an organization from principals' perceptions of their schools' organizational climates; and the Assumed Similarity of Opposite Scales (ASOS) measures openness or closedness of interaction systems from principals' perceptions of the psychological distance from their faculties. After 35 elementary school principals had completed both rating scales, organizational climate and psychological distance were not found to be positively related as suggested by the hypothesis. (RA)
