Abstract

A psychometric evaluation of the Religious Orientation Scale is reported in order to address a flaw in the existing literature. Presented are the results of a factor analysis for two samples of United States students and one sample of Australian students. Also included are internal-consistency indices for the factored scales, and Spearman-Brown projections for scale reliabilities if additional items were to be added to the scales. It is suggested that five items be dropped, and one External (E) item be shifted to the Internal (I) scale. Additional comments point to the apparent existence of two components of the E construct, leading to the recommendation that the E construct be separated into two different scales.
