Consensual Attitudes and Attitude Structure

Consensual Attitudes and Attitude Structure Abstract Analyses of attitude consistency have usually operationally defined consistency in terms of high statistical association between questionnaire items.

Abstract

Abstract Analyses of attitude consistency have usually operationally defined consistency in terms of high statistical association between questionnaire items. For a variety of statistical reasons researchers have avoided subject areas where such consistency is likely or, if these areas are investigated, the results tend to be misleading. These problems are illustrated by an examination of attitude coherence on racial issues among blacks and whites in 1968.
