Frequently Asked Questions
How was my overall score calculated?
You’ll remember that your answers were based on a scale from 1-7 with the options ranging from ‘very untrue of me’ to ‘very true of me’. This is called a ‘Likert scale’ – first developed in 1932 yet remains to be the method of choice for measuring people’s attitudes, opions and self-perceptions.
As there are a total of 28 questions, with a score of 7 points per question – 28 x 7 = 196 total points.
Why were some questions posed in the negative?
This is where it gets very interesting!
A Likert scale has a range of answers from most favourable (scoring highest, i.e. 7 points) to the least favourable (scoring lowest, i.e. 1 point).
The problem will posing questions in the same way is that the responder may not pay attention – and simply click ‘true, true, true, true…’.
By phrasing the questions in different ways, it forces the responder to think before responding.
Here’s an example.
I love and accept myself unconditionally, including my ‘flaws’.
“I do not love and accept myself unconditionally, including my ‘flaws’.
If some questions are posed negatively, doesn't that mess up the scores?
It’s a bit of a brain boggle!
A Likert scale has a range of answers from most favourable (scoring highest, i.e. 7 points) to the least favourable (scoring lowest, i.e. 1 point).
With the negatively posed questions, the score system is reversed as well.
Here’s an example.
I love and accept myself unconditionally, including my ‘flaws’.
Answering ‘very true of me‘ would = 7 points.
I do not love and accept myself unconditionally, including my ‘flaws’.
Answering ‘very true of me‘ would = 1 point.
How are my category scores calculated?
The quiz is actually made up of a whole bunch of ‘groups’ of questions. The scores from each of these groups are calculated to produce these individual scores.
