Measurements have been made of the resistivity as a function of hydrostatic pressure in the range 0 to 5 kbar in the temperature interval 180 to 330/sup 0/K for the amorphous alloys Fe/sub 80/B/sub 20/ (Metglas 2605), Fe/sub 19/Ni/sub 61/P/sub 14/B/sub 6/, Fe/sub 32/Ni/sub 36/Cr/sub 14/P/sub 12/B/sub 6/ (Metglas 2826A), Pd/sub 82/Si/sub 18/, and Cu/sub 42/Zr/sub 58/. Measurements of the Hall coefficient were also made in Fe/sub 19/Ni/sub 61/P/sub 14/B/sub 6/ and 2826A. The pressure coefficients of resistivity were uniformly negative and, with the exception of Fe/sub 80/B/sub 20/, insensitive to temperature. The contributions of thermal and magnetic scattering to the resistivity are negligible. The Ziman theory is found to be inadequate to account for the observed pressure dependence of the resistivity. 17 figures.
