The Visual Analogue Scale for Rating, Ranking and Paired-Comparison (VAS-RRP): A new technique for psychological measurement

Abstract: Traditionally, the visual analogue scale (VAS) has been proposed to overcome the limitations of ordinal measures from Likert-type scales. However, the function of VASs to overcome the limitations of response styles to Likert-type scales has not yet been addressed. Previous research using ranking and paired comparisons to compensate for the response styles of Likert-type scales has suffered from limitations, such as that the total score of ipsative measures is a constant that cannot be analyzed by means of many… Show more

“…We decided to use a VAS, that is, a continuous line with labels at both ends (e.g., "stongly agree" and "strongly disagree"). Several researchers have proposed to use Visual Analogue Scales (VAS) to overcome the limitations of Likert scales, such as the data being ordinally distributed (e.g., [48,58]). In SoSciSurvey, which we used to implement our questionnaire, these VAS assess data between 1 and 100.…”
