Social Distance Scale is developed by :

  • A.Thurstone
  • B.Bogardus
  • C.Likert
  • D.Wellington

Answer: B

The Social Distance Scale was developed by Bogardus.

Emory S. Bogardus devised the scale in the 1920s to measure people's willingness to accept members of other social groups at increasing levels of closeness, from admitting them to one's country, through having them as neighbours and colleagues, to admitting them to close kinship by marriage. It is a cumulative scale: accepting a closer relationship implies accepting the more distant ones.

L. L. Thurstone developed the method of equal-appearing intervals and Rensis Likert the summated rating scale. Wellington is not associated with any attitude scale.
