Summary Male college students (N # 387) completed a revised paternal attitude research instrument (Father's PARI Q4) and the Marlowe-Crowne (MC) social desirability scale. A week later the same Ss were retested on the PARI Q4, this time with the Edwards social desirability scale. The effects of acquiescence and opposition response bias sets were not significant on the Q4 scales; only the extreme set showed some significant effects. Two major factors obtained through factor analysis were Paternal Dominance (F1) and Male Autonomy (F2). Factor scores showed some significant correlations with the response sets. The test-retest reliabilities of Q4 scales were sufficiently high. Neither the MC nor the Edwards scale significantly correlated with the Q4 scales.
