Partisan identity scales derive from a general psychological group-identification measure

Evidence

The partisan identity scale is based on the Identification with a Psychological Group (IDPG) scale created by Mael and Tetrick (1992). We adapted five items from the original scale, and added three new items for inclusion in national surveys in the U.K., Sweden, and the Netherlands. We primarily utilize the scale to predict in-party vote and political participation. The scale targets partisans only. — Alexa Bankert and Leonie Huddy, Partisan Identity Scale (PIS), 7
