Abstract

This paper describes and discusses the development and empirical properties of the 24-item Likert-type Katz-Francis Scale of Attitude toward Judaism. The scale is designed to facilitate inter-faith comparisons within the psychology of religion alongside the well-established Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity. Data are provided from a sample of 618 Hebrew-speaking undergraduate students attending Bar-Ilan University. The findings confirm the reliability of the scale and commend it for further use.
