“…Response sets were often modified from the original, such as expanding the Likert scale to include a neutral response or more responses (Beckman et al, 2006; Teitelman, Ratcliffe, Morales-Aleman, & Sullivan, 2008; Younge et al, 2010), dichotomizing responses (Parrado, Flippen, & McQuiston, 2005; Pettifor et al, 2004), or reflecting the Likert scores (Buelna, Ulloa, & Ulibarri, 2009; Filson, Ulloa, Runfola, & Hokoda, 2010). Scoring variations were reported in several articles, most often in light of non-normal sample distributions, response set modifications, and cultural contexts.…”
