We have measured the angular distribution of electrons emitted in the autoionization of the giant resonance 3p64s 2S→[(3p53d 1P)4s]2P in Ca+ ions over the profile of the resonance. The absolute value of the asymmetry parameter we have determined at the top of the resonance is β  =  1.89±0.13, suggesting that LS coupling remains a good approximation for the description of this ionic resonance.
