1. In the initial study of which the present work is a replication, validity for the SF test was suggested by the high median score of 28.0 of 30.0 possible for a group of 15 deaf junior college students. Correspondingly, for a second sample of 13 deaf students at the same school who were tested with the SF test in conjunction with the present study, the median SF score was 29.0. High scores, such as these, on measures of editoritarianism are very much in line with expectations generated by the literature on the cognitive and perceptual styles of the deaf
