520 |a Ammerman (1982) hypothesized that questions concerning Biblical authority could be used to sort fundamentalists from other evangelicals. She further hypothesized that this sorting would be best accomplished by determining which respondents accepted a literal interpretation of the creation story in Genesis. This article presents findings from a split-ballot survey that contradict the two Ammerman hypotheses. Respondents to the creation story question were about half again more likely to affirm the literal interpretation position than respondents asked about the Bible as a whole. Correlations with numerous sociopolitical, religious, and sociodemographic variables indicate that both versions of the Biblical authority questions isolate religious conservatives. However, where measurement differences appeared, it is the whole-Bible version — rather than the creation-story version — that somewhat better identifies religious conservatives, including self-identified fundamentalists.
