The article discusses on authoritarianism in individuals. In the two decades since its introduction the F Scale has been both one of the most widely used and often criticized research techniques. One of the concerns of this research was to generate further evidence regarding the value of viewing authoritarianism as the reciprocal of individual breadth of perspective. In the present study all five indicants of breadth of perspective varied with dogmatism as predicted, while all except educational level varied significantly with authoritarianism. Viewed jointly, these findings enhance the value of employing both F and D Scales within the context of breadth of perspective. The second objective of this study was to gather additional data on the similarity or dissimilarity of F and D measurements. In this research four of the five analyses yielded substantially similar F and D distributions With regard to political attitudes, religious beliefs, mental ability and social class backgrounds, dogmatism mean scores were somewhat, but not significantly, higher than mean F scores at the low authoritarianism/dogmatism ends of the scales. Among these, the differences predicted by Rokeach higher D than F scores among political and religious liberals were present but not clearly significant.
