The Likert scale approach involves respondents indicating their level of agreement or disagreement with a series of statements, typically on a multi-point scale (e.g., 1 to 5 or 1 to 7), allowing for nuanced opinions. In contrast, the Thurstone scale approach requires researchers to develop a set of statements that represent a range of attitudes, which are then rated by experts to determine their relative intensity, with respondents selecting from these pre-rated statements. While the Likert scale is straightforward and easy for respondents, the Thurstone scale is more complex and aims for a more precise measurement of attitudes.
differentiate between returns to scale and constant return to scale
The syndicate approach refers to a collaborative method where multiple parties, often financial institutions or investors, come together to pool resources and share risks in order to undertake a specific project or investment. This approach is commonly used in large-scale financing, such as in real estate developments or major infrastructure projects, allowing participants to leverage their collective expertise and capital. By working as a syndicate, members can diversify their investments while reducing individual exposure to financial risk.
Not profiting from economies of scale, because there are no economies of scale. That is meant by diseconomies of scale.
it is a scale that uses counter weight and balance
waht are the source of return to scale
real definition of likert scale?
The Likert scale is a psychometric scale commonly involved in research that gives its participants questionnaires. It is the approach to scaling responses in survey results.
It depends on the specific likert scale, but generally it is the ordinal level
Can a 3-point scale also be called a Likert scale?? PS
The Likert type question is used to determine the respondent attitude or feeling on a particular specific item. There are numerous ways to set up the answer types on the Likert scale; see the related links.
A Likert scale is considered a quantitative measurement tool because it assigns numerical values to responses and allows for numerical analysis of data.
A Likert Scale Questionnaire is one where the subjects are asked to mark how much they agree with the point of view in the item. Rensis Likert devised it first. An item in a Likert Questionnaire could be "People who commit murder should be executed." The format for a five-point Likert scale could be: # Strongly disagree # Disagree # Neither agree nor disagree # Agree # Strongly Agree The results are either analyzed separately, or the whole scale may be totalled or summed. Because of this, Likert Scales are often called "Summative Scales".

The Likert Scale
See the related link for more information. The Likert scale with 5 points typically has a middle neutral (neither agree or disagree) choice. In the 4-point scale, the neutral choice is removed, so that person who is uncertain is forced to lean (even if slightly) one way or the other.
its mostly used in scaling responses in questioners and surveys
The correct formula is: 1.5 x (N-1) +1 where N is the score on a 7 point scale.
