Likert Scale
Likert 1932 proposed a simple and straightforward method for scaling attitudes that is widely used today. A likert scale presents the examinee with five responses ordered on an agree/disagree or approve/disapprove continuum. For example, one itme on a scale to assess attitudes toward church membership might read; “Church services gives me inspiration and help me to live up to my best during the following week.
Do you;
II II II II II
Strongly agree, Agree, Undecided, Disagree, Strongly disagree
Depending upon the wording of an individual item, an extreme answer of “Strongly agree” or strongly disagree will indicate the most favorable resonse on the underlying attitude measured by the questionnaire.
Likert 1932 assigned a score of 5 to this extreme response, 1 to the opposite extreme and 2,3, and 4 to intermediate replies. The total scale score is obtained by adding the scores from individual items. For this reason, a Likert scale is also referred as a summative scale.
