درس 5 از 12
Design and summarize rating scales while respecting midpoint choices, endpoint labels, and ordinal interpretation.
Theory
A Likert-style item asks respondents to choose an ordered response such as agreement or confidence. Good rating questions use clear endpoint labels, a consistent scale, and a deliberate decision about whether to include a neutral midpoint.
توضیح 1
A neutral midpoint lets respondents say neither side fits.
توضیح 2
Forced choice removes the midpoint and asks respondents to lean.
توضیح 3
Endpoint labels define what high and low ratings mean.
فعالیت تعاملی
A rating scale should name its endpoints and avoid pretending ordinal responses are more precise than they are.
