Anyone out there have any journal article references using
5 point versus 7 point scales in questionnaires.

Example of a 5 point scale:
1=Excellent
2=Good
3=Fair
4=Poor
5=Worsening

Example of a 7 point scale:
1=Extremely bothered
2=Very bothered
3=Quite bothered
4=Somewhat bothered
5=Bothered a bit
6=Hardly bothered at all
7=Not bothered

I'm not the author of either scale.

Please respond to me directly, rather than to the whole list.

Best wishes,
Eric Gibson, PhD
