Think you know your top 10 leaders? Bet you don’t.

If you’re not careful, you just might be missing what they have to offer. Take this example from the world of sports. If I told you that one of the greatest players in the NBA doesn’t score many points, you might question my judgment. When I add that he also doesn’t rebound much or even steal, block, or get assists very often, then you’ll probably start to think I’m genuinely crazy. Or, if you’re generous, you might just think I’m confused about what NBA players are supposed to do. But if you dig a little deeper, you’ll find what I’m saying is true.

By Saul McLeod published 2008 Various kinds of rating scales have been developed to measure attitudes directly (i.e. the person knows their attitude is being studied).

Likert Scale

The most widely used is the Likert Scale. Likert (1932) developed the principle of measuring attitudes by asking people to respond to a series of statements about a topic, in terms of the extent to which they agree with them, and so tapping into the cognitive and affective components of attitudes. Likert-type or frequency scales use fixed choice response formats and are designed to measure attitudes or opinions (Bowling, 1997; Burns, & Grove, 1997). These ordinal scales measure levels of agreement/disagreement. A Likert-type scale assumes that the strength/intensity of experience is linear, i.e. on a continuum from strongly agree to strongly disagree, and makes the assumption that attitudes can be measured.
