Helms, Janet E. – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 1999

Lemon, Rochelle L.; Waehler, Charles A. – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 1996
Found that the test-retest reliabilities of two measures--(RIAS-B) and (WRIAS)--imply that racial identity may reflect more state characteristics (conditions or events) than trait characteristics (stable). Measures of self-derogation, self-esteem, and ethnic identity were also correlated with the racial identity scales. (RJM)
