Abstract
Two short (16 item) forms of the Helmreich, Stapp, and Ervin (1974) Texas Social Behavior Inventory, a validated, objective measure of self-esteem or social competence are presented. Normative data and other statistics are described for males and females. Correlations between each short form and long (32-item) scale were.97. Factor analysis and part-whole correlations verified the similarity of the two forms. The utility of the scale in research is described.
