Birth Attitudies Survey
Fragment of a discussion from Course talk:STAT 550 2013
1. Should "no opinion" be included as score 4 or should not be included when calcuating averages? The former results in less variation.
2. Is it reasonable to assign the same step-size among different responses? e.g. people may be reluctant to choose "strongly agree", which may imply that "strongly agree" should get more score.
3. Aren't the categories too many? e.g. do people really distinguish "mildly agree" and "agree"?
