Abstract:
In 1944, Levinson and Sanford created a scale to measure anti-Semitism. Their data showed that the scale had sound psychometric qualities, with a reliability of .96 to .98. Shaw and Wright later stated that the scale was too long for use in some research studies. In the current study, a shorter version (32 items; 38.5% reduction) was created and examined. A high level of internal consistency reliability (r(tt) = .98) was maintained. A test-retest reliability coefficient of .91 was obtained over four weeks. A minimum residual factor analysis with Tandem Criteria rotation found two factors. This shortened Levinson and Sanford Anti-Semitism Scale could be used in research situations with less administration and scoring time. The shorter version still requires further research in terms of validity and social desirability.

Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay
There are many different types of ELISAs, but they all involve an antibody molecule whose constant region binds an enzyme, leaving the variable region free to bind its specific antigen. Enzyme-substrate reaction allows the antigen to be visualized or quantified.
