Psychology Religion religious orientation socially desirable responding context effects intrinsic extrinsic quest Religiousness has been associated with socially desirable responding (SDR) but its relationship with SDR has remained equivocal. Context effects and/or priming may be implicated in this unclear relationship; previous studies may have inadvertently affected responses by activating religious constructs prior to SDR measurement. This study hypothesizes a change in SDR contingent upon whether subjects perceive a survey to be religious in nature or not. It is further hypothesized that an SDR increase will be demonstrated in subjects of an intrinsic religious orientation, while other orientations (extrinsic, pro-religious, nonreligious and quest) will remain unaffected. As predicted, a significant shift in SDR was demonstrated, however, SDR responses by intrinsic-oriented subjects decreased, while SDR by subjects of extrinsic orientation increased. 2009-10-08 English text Marietta College / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=marietta1254943217 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=marietta1254943217 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
