One of my students asked if the legal system favored men or women in regards to rape cases. His perception was that women were favored and men were convicted simply on the women's word. I have always thought the opposite - that most cases were thro

I was listening to This American Life last night and heard a segment on the Hartman Value Profile. I heard all sorts of endorsements for it, but I wondered about its statistical qualities (reliability, validity). Is anyone familiar with the test.
