Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This scenario describes a graphic-ratings scale, where participants are asked to mark a point on a line to indicate their rating or feeling towards a statement or item. The closer the mark is to the right, the stronger agreement with the statement. The other scales listed (itemized, thermometer, semantic-differential, and summated-ratings) have different instructions and set-ups, so they are not applicable in this scenario.
