"The steps of scale development are clearly explained, with brief rationales of the methods involved..Having read the book, almost anyone with a basic social science education could go through the practical motions of developing a scale...says in general terms that theory is important and goes on to provide hints on how to generate a pool of items. The hints are empirically sound and useful.." -- Joint Centre for Survey Methods Newsletter
