A Comparative Test of the Interval-Scale Properties of Magnitude Estimation and Case III Scaling and Recommendations for Equal-Interval Frequency Response Anchors.
Schriesheim, Chester A.; Novelli, Luke, Jr.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v49 n1 p59-74 Spr 1989
Differences between recommended sets of equal-interval response anchors derived from scaling techniques using magnitude estimations and Thurstone Case III pair-comparison treatment of complete ranks were compared. Differences in results for 205 undergraduates reflected differences in the samples as well as in the tasks and computational algorithms. (SLD)
