Relation of the Revised Repression-Sensitization Scale to Measures of Self-Description
Abstract
An internal-consistency item-analysis was carried out for the 182-item Repression-Sensitization Scale. Responses to each question were correlated with Total R-S score for two samples consisting of 370 undergraduates each. A revised scoring key was made, consisting of 127 cross-validated items. Using a new sample, reliability coefficients of .94 (split-half) and .82 (test-retest) were found. In subsequent investigations, R-S scores were found to be positively related to self-ideal discrepancy and negative self-description on Worchel's SAI. On a measure of Hostility Incongruency, R-S scores were positively related to each of three types of incongruency. There were only minimal differences between the two scoring keys in the relationships found. The consistent finding that self-report measures are related to the R-S Scale was discussed and alternate hypotheses were advanced to account for these relationships.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
