title: Response set of social desirability in relation to the Mental, Physical and Spiritual Well-Being Scale.
abstract: This study examined the relationship of the Mental, Physical and Spiritual Well-being Scale to the response set of social desirability. Social desirability was assessed by correlating the Mental, Physical and Spiritual Well-being Scale responses of 178 participants with scores on the Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability Scale. Pearson product-moment correlations were not significant and indicated that the Mental, Physical and Spiritual Well-being Scale did not elicit socially desirable responses.
