A note of caution about the "Moral Judgment Test in Physical Education" (MJT-PE).
A new test, the Moral Judgment Test-PE (MJT-PE), has good validity but scores on Competence should be used with great care. These scores will differ from those of the original Moral Judgment Test (MJT) because the single dilemma is targeted to the specific population of interest, physical educators. This reduces the variance in such a way that scores on the new test cannot be compared with or interpreted in the same way as scores on the original MJT. Careful research would be needed to develop norms for the MJT-PE; in the meantime, the two tests should be used together so that the C-scores can be interpreted with confidence.
