Résumé
Concerning rating scales as systems of educational marks, see more articles about education in different countries (named "Education in ..."), for example, Education in Ukraine.
Concerning rating scales used in the practice of medicine, see articles about diagnoses, for example, Major depressive disorder.
A rating scale is a set of categories designed to elicit information about a quantitative or a qualitative attribute. In the social sciences, particularly psychology, common examples are the Likert response scale and 1-10 rating scales in which a person selects the number which is considered to reflect the perceived quality of a product.
A rating scale is a method that requires the rater to assign a value, sometimes numeric, to the rated object, as a measure of some rated attribute
All rating scales can be classified into one of these types:
Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)
Verbal Rating Scale (VRS)
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
Likert
Graphic rating scale
Descriptive graphic rating scale
Some data are measured at the ordinal level. Numbers indicate the relative position of items, but not the magnitude of difference. Attitude and opinion scales are usually ordinal; one example is a Likert response scale:
Statement e.g. "I could not live without my computer".
Response options
Strongly disagree
Disagree
Neutral
Agree
Strongly agree
Some data are measured at the interval level. Numbers indicate the magnitude of difference between items, but there is no absolute zero point. A good example is a Fahrenheit/Celsius temperature scale where the differences between numbers matter, but placement of zero does not.
Some data are measured at the ratio level. Numbers indicate magnitude of difference and there is a fixed zero point. Ratios can be calculated. Examples include age, income, price, costs, sales revenue, sales volume and market share.
More than one rating scale question is required to measure an attitude or perception due to the requirement for statistical comparisons between the categories in the polytomous Rasch model for ordered categories.
