The objective of the study was to determine the feasibility of developing instrumentation designed to assess perceptions and attitudes toward proposal development and funding. An initial set of items was developed based upon personal experience and literature review and then reduced thru factor analysis. A final set of 54 items was mail administered to a systematic selected national sample of 416 members of the American Educational Research Association. Discriminant function analyses of responses were conducted using both sex and proposal development experience as classification variables. The instrument demonstrated good scaling properties and high internal consistency. Discriminations beyond the chance level were obtained on the two classification variables. Based upon item responses, statements reflecting both "myths" and "realities" of proposal development were identified.
