LIKERT SCALE AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test) This questionnaire was developed by the World Health

Organization to identify persons whose alcohol consumption has been hazardous or harmful to their health. One unit of alcohol is: Half a pint of standard beer (alc.3.5% vol)

one 25 ml serving of spirit (alc 0% vol) half a 175ml glass of wine (alc 12% vol)

Note: some drinks may contain deceptively high quantities of alcohol. For example, a can of high strength lager may contain 3-5 units and a bottle of pre-mixed spirit drink may contain up to 2 units.

THURSTONE SCALE DRUG USE QUESTIONNAIRE (DAST-10)

The following questions concern information about your potential involvement with drugs excluding alcohol and tobacco during the past 12 months. Carefully read each statement and decide if your answer is "No" or "Yes". Then, fill in the appropriate box beside the question. When the words "drug abuse" is used, they mean the use of prescribed or over-the-counter in excess of the directions and any non-medical use of drugs. The various classes of drugs may include: cannabis (e.g., marijuana, hash), solvents, tranquilizers (e.g., Valium), barbiturates, cocaine, stimulants (e.g., speed), hallucinogens ( e.g., LSD) or narcotics ( e.g., heroin). Remember that the questions do not include alcohol or tobacco. Please answer every question. If you have difficulty with a statement, then choose the response that is mostly right.

In order to be scientific, research must be carried out in a research laboratory. 2. Not all research is scientific. 3. Scientific research combines empirical and rational principles. 4. An assumption in science is an idea or statement that we know is true and that forms the basis for testing other ideas. 5. Scientists believe that the universe is primarily orderly and that it is possible for us to learn about the universe through research. 6. The facts of research include the many events that can be directly observed. 7. In psychology, the behavior of organisms is the major category of facts that we study. 8. Events like memory, intelligence, and humor are examples of behavioral facts. 9. The quality of our observations of behavior will depend on the accuracy of our inferences about the behavior. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. Inferences are drawn on the basis of empirical observations.

Assess your learning by checking under the scale that applies to you:
Always I am happy and thankful for the gift of freedom. I agree that rules and regulations, laws, and norms of conduct are helpful in directing our choices and course of action. I consider the rights and feelings of others in making decisions/choices. I weigh the consequences of my actions before making decisions. I accept the consequences of what I choose or decide. Never

Questions Based on Level of Measurement We can also classify questions in terms of their level of measurement. For instance, we might measure occupation using a nominal question. Here, the number next to each response has no meaning except as a placeholder for that response. The choice of a "2" for a lawyer and a "1" for a truck driver is arbitrary -- from the numbering system used we can't infer that a lawyer is "twice" something that a truck driver is.

We might ask respondents to rank order their preferences for presidential candidates using an ordinal question:

We want the respondent to put a 1, 2, 3 or 4 next to the candidate, where 1 is the respondent's first choice. Note that this could get confusing. We might want to state the prompt more explicitly so the respondent knows we want a number from one to 4 (the respondent might check their favorite candidate, or assign higher numbers to candidates they prefer more instead of understanding that we want rank ordering). Filter or Contingency Questions
Sometimes you have to ask the respondent one question in order to determine if they are qualified or experienced enough to answer a subsequent one. This requires using a filter or contingency question. For instance, you may want to ask one question if the respondent has ever smoked marijuana and a different question if they have not. In this case, you would have to construct a filter question to determine whether they've ever smoked marijuana:

Filter questions can get very complex. Sometimes, you have to have multiple filter questions in order to direct your respondents to the correct subsequent questions. There are a few conventions you should keep in mind when using filters:

try to avoid having more than three levels (two jumps) for any question

Too many jumps will confuse the respondent and may discourage them from continuing with the survey.

if only two levels, use graphic to jump (e.g., arrow and box)

The example above shows how you can make effective use of an arrow and box to help direct the respondent to the correct subsequent question.

if possible, jump to a new page

If you can't fit the response to a filter on a single page, it's probably best to be able to say something like "If YES, please turn to page 4" rather that "If YES, please go to Question 38" because the respondent will generally have an easier time finding a page than a specific question. Rank Order scale A Rank Order scale gives the respondent a set of items and asks them to put the items in some form of order. The measure of 'order' can include such as preference, importance, liking, effectiveness and so on. The order is often a simple ordinal structure (A is higher than B). It can also be done by relative position (A scores 10 whilst B scores 6). Example Please write a letter next to the four evening activities below to show your preference. Use A for your most preferred activity, B for the next preferred, then C for the next and then D for the least preferred. __ Staying in and watching television. __ Going bowling. __ Going out for a meal. __ Going to a bar with a friend.
