Abstract
An analysis of Dogmatism scores among authoritarians of the right and left supports Rokeach's contention that his scale taps general authoritarianism. However, examination of the correlations between the Dogmatism scale and the rightist and leftist authoritarianism subscales does not support the view that authoritarians of the right and the left are equally dogmatic.Keywords
