# Handbook of Management Scales/Opinion leadership
## Opinion leadership (alpha > 0.8)
### Description

The authors conducted five studies to develop two scales: opinion leadership and opinion seeking. Hereby, data from more than 1,100 respondents were used. The authors strived for unidimensionality, reliability, construct validity, and criterion-related validity.

### Definition

Opinion leadership occurs when individuals try to influence the purchasing behavior of other consumers in specific product fields.

### Items

This short questionnaire is about popular rock music and rock music recordings [fashion; environmentally friendly products]. Please read each statement carefully. For each of the statements below, please circle the number that most closely matches your view of the opinions stated. The items are scaled from 1 to 7, with a higher number meaning stronger agreement.
* My opinion on rock [fashion; environmentally friendly products] seems not to count with other people.
* When they choose a rock music recording [fashionable clothing; "green" products], other people do not turn to me for advice.
* Other people [rarely] come to me for advice about choosing CDs and tapes [fashionable clothing; products that are good for the environment].
* People that I know pick rock music [clothing; "green" products] based on what I have told them.
* I often persuade other people to buy the rock music [fashions; "green" products] that I like.
* I often influence people's opinions about popular rock [clothing; environmentally correct products].
Some items are reverse-coded.

Editorial
Recently l have accepted invitations to hear amplifiers and receivers which proud owners have considered to be the pinnacle of perfection. In nearly every case I have been sadly disappointed, and without regard to the rules of etiquette and hospitality I have felt it my duty to insist on the production of a meter to prove the most blatant faults, such as putting three watts of energising power into a speaker field coil and then feeding it with ten watts of audio. One of the amazing features of the human body is the way in which the senses will accommodate themselves to changed circumstances. They say that after working in a tannery, or other place where there is an obnoxious smell, the nose soon becomes accustomed to that smell and it no longer seems unpleasant. The ears have a similar characteristic. If you listen long enough to distorted reproduction you can eventually fool yourself into imagining that it doesn't sound too bad. The ear, being such an unreliable judge of distortion, we suggest that wherever possible a periodic check should be made with meters. Unfortunately it is not so easy to thoroughly check distortion with simple meters, but much can be done by indirect methods. If an amplifier is correctly designed and the valves and other components are in good condition, then it is unlikely that distortion will be present. We specially suggest the testing of valves, and checking such points as the actual wattage in the speaker field, the plate current of each valve, and measurement of the effective bias voltage between each grid and cathode.

Editorial
In this issue will be found the full details of the parts priority plan for radio servicemen. It is bound to be of vital interest to all our readers. Not actually covered in our issue, but already well publicised in the daily press, is the order controlling the sale of radio receivers. At the moment of writing, Dame Rumour has it that parts are to be frozen, too, and only released to servicemen. This is logical, so we won't be at all surprised if it has become a fact by the time these lines appear in print. There appear to be two trains of thought on the above moves. One is that control is inevitable; the other, a pious hope that the efficiency factor of the administration will be such that a better result will be achieved than could be obtained if the manpower hours of the organisation involved were applied to the production of materials and components. When the history of this period is being written, there is a chance that it will not appear as efficient as desirable, especially if account can be taken of the manpower hours wasted in wangling, hunting for black markets, waiting in queues, and so on. However, be that as it may, it is the clear duty of everyone to do their utmost to accept regulations as they come, abide by them as far as practical, and do everything possible to discourage the corruption of morals and principles which seem to be the unfortunate wake of Regulations. - A. G. HULL.

In a recent issue we reprinted some remarks about a court-case in America, dealing with radio patents and more particularly, the part which Marconi played in the invention of radio communication. This article aroused considerable comment, especially from those who are loyal supporters of Marconi. It has been pointed out often enough that wireless waves, as such, were first known as hertzian waves, after Hertz, German scientist who holds credit for their discovery. A correspondent has pointed out, however, that in December, 1889, an engineer, named Huber, wrote to Hertz and suggested the use of his oscillations for communications, but Hertz turned down the idea! Another correspondent points out that the preliminary experiments in the use of hertzian waves for communications were carried out by a Russian named Popov, who demonstrated reception before the Russian Physical-Chemical Society on May 7, 1895. This demonstration was not the mere starting of Popov's experiments, either, as he had lectured on the subject at the Marine Officers' Club in Kronstadt in the spring of 1889. Dealing with the recent interpretation by the Supreme Court in U.S.A., it is still far from clear that the court ruling did anything which could be defined as a contradiction of the generally-held view that Marconi was the father of radio communication. There seems little doubt that Marconi and his organisations reaped the honour, glory and financial reward to which they were rightly entitled.

Editorial
Anytime there happens to be a lull in the conversation you have only to mention post-war reconstruction and you will be sure to stir up plenty of enthusiasm. Take, for example, radio trading of the future. One thought is along the lines of extension of the socialism scheme, meaning possibly a standard design of "Peoples' Receiver," of utilitarian type, produced in big quantities under Government supervision and supplied at cost to each and every householder. For contrast, there are those who plan to produce elaborate receivers of the most deluxe specification, claiming that when people start to spend their savings and their repaid war loan bonds they will want the best. From an entirely different angle, there is the view that maybe the local radio manufacturers will have to face the prospect of free-trade, standing toe to toe and slogging for the market against the competition of mass-produced receivers from overseas, selling complete at a figure which the Australian public has become to regard as the price of a couple of valves. All of the above thoughts are possibilities, even as there is a possibility that conditions will return to exactly the same stage where we left off as the war became intensified. No matter what the answer may be we feel a happy confidence in the ability of the members of the Australian radio trade to face up to circumstances and overcome all obstacles, even as they did in the early days of their progress.

Editorial
The prize contest announced in this issue is something considerably more than a mere essay contest. It has two major objects in addition to the worthy one dealt with at greater length in the announcement; the production of a standard circuit to relieve the pressure on design engineers. The first additional object is to provide suitable editorial matter, which is a great difficulty in these times of shortage of manpower. Technical radio has a most important role in the war effort and "Australasian Radio World" has its place in technical radio, yet we agree with manpower authorities that its publication should be carried on with as little drain on the manpower supply as is reasonable. Hence, if some radio enthusiasts can devote their leisure to indulging in a little journalism, it is going to be an indirect assistance to the war effort. The second additional object is to give us some guidance as to the prospects of securing the services of a suitable technical editor for a vast expansion programme which is ready to come into action immediately victory has been accomplished. The prospects of post-war radio are truly vast, and for our part we have laid our plans to maintain a position right out on the top of technical radio developments. Our choice of a suitable person for the congenial position of technical editor will be largely governed by the merit of technical articles contributed between now and then. - A. G. HULL.

Editorial
Recent correspondence has been sharply divided between those complaining of lack of service, and others asking why our staff is not working in the interests of the war effort. There have been good reasons for the complaints about the answering of letters, acknowledgements of subscriptions and so on. Of our office staff of seven persons a couple of years ago, not one remains. Bill DeCosier, our first office boy, was shot down in his Spitfire over the North Sea a couple of months ago. Of the rest, two are now prisoners of war, one in the A.I.F., two engaged on munitions production and even little Patsy is now a WAAF! Recently we made arrangements with an established office to handle our business affairs. This should mean vastly improved service without any drain on manpower. With regard to our war effort: Mr. Straede is a physicist in a munitions factory; Mr. Keast handles his short-wave pages in his spare time, and personally, having been rejected on account of physical unfitness, I put in over 56 hours per week as manager of D. M. HULL & Co., an engineering factory engaged solely on war work. Under the circumstances we feel that we are doing our best to justify the confidence of the thousands of subscribers and supporters who are greater in number today than ever before in the seven years history of the publication. - A. G. HULL.
