Abstract
In this paper, Edwards and Walker reanalyze the Couch and Keniston data (see 36: 3HF75C) by performing a different method of rotation on the matrix. This analysis eventuated in only 2 factors, a social desirability set and an "acquiescence factor," with OAS items heavily loaded on both factors. Edwards and Walker reconclude that OAS may be loaded with, confounded with, or misidentified with items of the social desirability set. From Psyc Abstracts 36:01:3HF80E.
