This study was done to assess the influence of a response set, number of items checked, in the Multiple Affect Adjective Check List (MAACL). In some previous studies, the response set was moderately correlated with the total scale scores of Anxiety, Depression, and Hostility, but in other studies the correlations were minimal. Ss were 432 male and 614 female undergraduates from colleges in the East, Midwest, and West. In the total sample, the number of items checked correlated low, but significantly, with the total scale scores. However, the magnitude of the correlations varied considerably among the three regional samples.

Assumed Similarity

Accuracy, assumed similarity, and actual similarity were assessed for an acquaintance and a stranger target selected by the subject. Four standardized questionnaires were used to obtain separate estimates of each variable, Cattell's 16 PF test, Gough's Adjective Check List, the Abilities and Characteristics Scale of the Strong Vocational Interest Blank, and Bernreuter's Personality Inventory. All measures showed significant differences in the predicted direction for accuracy and no significant between-target differences for assumed similarity or actual similarity. The Adjective Check List proved to be very susceptible to social desirability response set and produced accuracy scores that were strongly associated with assumed similarity. On the other measures, accuracy scores were relatively independent of assumed similarity, suggesting that these instruments are suitable for studies of person perception.
