Scale Library

 

Scale library allows you to configure rating scales for Comment Rating.

 

 

To allow participants to be able to rate other participants' comments, you will use this option. There are two available scales you can use for comment rating. Question rating scales first need to be set up in the Library > Scale Library. In the following example, there are 4 rating scales set up (Feasibility, Importance, Priority, Relevance). You may add any rating scale with any number of points. Comment rating is not a threaded discussion, panelists can simply rate other panelist's comments through one or two Likert scale s; no direct interaction is allowed between panelists. Comment rating analysis is displayed only to the administrator, panelists cannot see ratings from other panelists. You can assign up to 2 rating scales to each question (or matrix column).

 

 

The Importance rating scale is set up with 4 points from negative to positive (which is the standard format in Delphi surveys). You may add as many Likert scale  points as you please.

 

 

 

As next step, you assign these rating scales to your questions or matrix rows using their Comment Rating Scale settings. Visit Comment Rating page for more information.
