Likert Scale

Likert developed the Likert scale in 1932, and used it to identify the extent of a person’s beliefs, attitudes, or feelings towards some objects. The traditional Likert scale asks people the extent to which they agree or disagree with a statement on a 5-point scale. The scale ranges from “strongly agree” to “strongly disagree.”
