Abstract
ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to validate the Attitudes Toward Same-Sex Marriage Scale (ATSM; Pearl & Galupo, 2007) in a Greek population. The sample (N = 391) consisted of students and nonstudents found in major universities in Athens, Greece. Students completed the Attitudes Toward Same-Sex Marriage Scale (ATSM; Pearl & Galupo, 2007), Herek's Attitudes Toward Lesbians and Gay Men Scale (ATLG; Herek, 1988) and theoretically relevant demographic, attitudinal and contextual variables. Reliability of the ATSM scale in a Greek population was established. Construct validity of the ATSM was demonstrated as scores were highly correlated with scores on the Attitudes Toward Lesbians and Gay Men Scale and followed predicted correlational patterns with selected factors including gender, religiosity, political conservatism, and interpersonal contact. The test-retest reliability was satisfactory. The study found the Greek translation of the ATSM scale both reliable and valid and suitable for research use.
