Here is the first generalisation step: we move from the standard 3-point Likert scale {-1, 0, +1}, or [-1,+1] in the continuous case, to a (2k+1)-point Likert case {-k, ..., 0, ... +k}, or the real interval [-k,+k] if you adopt a continuous rating scheme. The ...
Acceptance of each food was measured one week per month by the mothers at home from the beginning of complementary feeding until the child was one year, and was scored on a 4-point Likert scale. Intake was not measured. The other longitudinal study found that the number of vegetables tried...
A symptom score sheet was designed based on the typical format of a 4-point Likert scale[16] with questions pertaining to four AECOPD symptoms in terms of TCM syndrome of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung (cough, phlegm, wheezing, chest congestion)[17]. Members of the research team administere...

For all items, participants were asked to respond by using a 5-point Likert-type scale, and responses were dichotomized after checking the distribution of answers (Supplementary Table 1). The responses “strongly agree” and “agree” to the first statement were categorized as agreement with the...
Symptom severity per each item will be assessed by a 5-point Likert scale: none - 0, slight - 1, moderate - 2, severe - 3, and very severe - 4. The GIS scale is very easy for participants to understand and to complete. The GIS scale will be assessed at baseline, 2 weeks, 4 ...
The approach to selecting the sample is to pick a starting point and then pick respondents at a pre-defined sample interval. For example, while selecting 1,000 volunteers for the Olympics from an application list of 10,000 people, each applicant is given a count of 1 to 10,000. Then ...
Respondents evaluated their answers using a 7-point Likert scale, spanning from “strongly disagree” (1) to “strongly agree” (7). Subsequently, the survey collected demographic information from respondents, offering multiple response options for them to select. To ensure the precision of the ...
infants fed added sugar before 4 months were more likely to reject bitter and sour-tasting foods in early childhood. These infants were found to be at an increased risk for childhood obesity [5]. Furthermore, infants that are fed formulas with sweet flavors have a lower acceptance of bitter...
