Simple Attitude Scales
Simple Attitudes Scales
     also called a
     dichotomous scale
 Simple Attitudes Scales
When there are multiple
options for the rater but only
one answer is sought, the
multiple-choice, single-
response scale is appropriate.
 Simple Attitudes Scales
A variation, the multiple-
choice, multiple-response
scale (also called a checklist).
 Simple Attitudes Scales
S imple attitude scales are
easy to develop, are
inexpensive, and can be
designed to be highly specific.
Likert Scales
Likert Scales
is the most frequently
used variation of the
summated rating scale
Likert Scales
Has many advantages
that account for its
popularity
It is easy and quick to construct. Conscientious researchers are careful
that each item meets an empirical test for discriminating ability between
favorable and unfavorable attitudes. Likert scales are probably more
reliable and provide a greater volume of data than many other scales.
The scale produces interval data.
Likert Scales
Involved a procedure
known as item analysis.
In the first step, a large number of statements were collected that
met two criteria:
1. Each statement was relevant to the attitude being studied;
2. Each was believed to reflect a favorable or unfavorable
    position on that attitude.
Semantic Differential Scales
Semantic Differential Scales
          measures the
          psychological meanings
          of an attitude object
          using bipolar adjectives.
Semantic Differential Scales
          Osgood and his associates
          developed the semantic
          differential method to measure
          the psychological meanings of
          an object to an individual
Semantic Differential Scales

Multiple Rating List Scales
Multiple Rating List Scales
          measures the
          psychological meanings
          of an attitude object
          using bipolar adjectives.
Multiple Rating List Scales
Staple Scales
        Staple Scales
used as an alternative to the
semantic differential, especially
when it is difficult to find bipolar
adjectives that match the
investigative question.
Constant-Sum Scales
Constant-Sum Scales
      A scale that helps the
      researcher discover
      proportions.
Constant-Sum Scales
Graphic Rating Scales
       O riginally created to
       enable researchers to
       discern fine differences.
