Temporal stability of the Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity short-form: Test-retest data over one week

Abstract

This study evaluated the test-retest reliability of the Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity short-form. Thirty-nine Northern Irish undergraduate university students completed the measure on two occasions separated by one week. Stability across the two administrations was high, r = .92, and there was no significant change between Time 1 (M = 25.2, SD = 5.4) and Time 2 (M = 25.7, SD = 6.2). These data support the short-term test-retest reliability of the Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity short-form.
