Abstract

Data was collected from 375 students from a midwestern university, to evaluate the Perceptions towards Interracial/Interethnic Couples Scale (PTICS). Reliability and validity analyses were encouraging for the relationship inferiority subscale and PTICS total scale. Potential model fit concerns emerged compared to previous research that used an Amazon Mechanical Turk sample.
