Abstract
850 Italian subjects were administered a 48-item questionnaire of social attitudes constructed on the lines of Eysenck's original inventory. Items were intercorrelated and the resulting matrix factor analysed. Two major factors corresponded very closely with the radicalism and toughmindedness factors found for English, Swedish, German, Japanese and other samples. It is concluded that the structure of attitudes found is similar in all the major industrialized countries.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
