The C-OAR-SE procedure for scale development in marketing

Abstract: Construct definition, Object classification, Attribute classification, Rater identification, Scale formation, and Enumeration and reporting (C-OAR-SE) is proposed as a new procedure for the development of scales to measure marketing constructs. COARSE is based on content validity, established by expert agreement after pre-interviews with target raters. In C-OAR-SE, constructs are defined in terms of Object, Attribute, and Rater Entity. The Object classification and Attribute classification steps in C-OAR-SE pr… Show more

“…For our two exogenous constructs, relationship value and switching costs, multi-item scales were used in order to fully assess the construct domains, while all dependent measures were taken as meaningful single item measures. The object of this study's questionnaire is a single clearly-identified buyer-seller relationship for each respondent, and hence is "concrete" (Rossiter, 2002). The attributes assessed for the dependent variables are of the type that have little disagreement between raters, so are also deemed concrete.…”

“…The total number of selected adjectives is considered as the measure of an individual's creative personality (a maximum of 16). Because the item scores of a formative index do not need to correlate, common test methods for assessing construct reliability do not apply (Rossiter, 2002).…”

“…Given the composite nature of formative constructs, there is no requirement that the measures of the construct be highly correlated (Rossiter 2002). Reliability in the form of very high internal consistency of indicators is actually undesirable for formative constructs (Petter et al 2007).…”
