<p class="MsoPlainText">Colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">I would like to request your help in
gathering unpublished papers you have authored which meet one or
both of two simple criteria:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.25in">1.<span
style="font-size:7.0pt;font-family:"Times New
Roman","serif""> </span>The paper employed
a marker variable approach (i.e., Lindell & Whitney's
correlational marker technique or Williams and colleagues' CFA
marker technique) for the purpose of identifying or controlling
for CMV in substantive relationships.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.25in">2.<span
style="font-size:7.0pt;font-family:"Times New
Roman","serif""> </span>The paper includes
one or more explicit measures of potential CMV causes (e.g.,
social desirability, affectivity, or response styles such as
(dis)acquiescence, mid-point responding, or extreme responding)
used explicitly for the purpose of identifying or controlling for
CMV in substantive relationships.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">In both cases, we are specifically seeking
papers that have not been published in a refereed journal. We thus
hope to obtain papers that either have not been submitted or were
rejected by a refereed journal. Research that was presented at a
conference or dissertation work that was not submitted to a
journal is likewise of interest.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p></o:p>Thank you for your assistance,</p>
