Résumé:A 54-item multiple-choice test was developed to measure the cognitive component of attitude toward one specific concept of church. Validity and reliability were established.

The scale illustrates a marked psychometric advance over the conceptually vague and undifferentiated Chave-like scale, but is not yet refined by factor analysis.
