The Global Rating Scale complements the AGREE II in advancing the quality of practice guidelines

Journal of Clinical Epidemiology, 2012
To explore the role of a four-item Global Rating Scale (GRS) that could be used in place of the Appraisal of Guidelines, Research and Evaluation II (AGREE II).A mixed four-factor design was used (User Type, Evaluation Type, Clinical Topic, Guideline). Participants were asked to read and evaluate a guideline using both the AGREE II draft and GRS or GRS ...

Context in category scales: is “fully agree” equal to twice agree?

European Review of Applied Psychology, 2006
Abstract Trough the “cross modality matching” approach this research examines the perceived intensity of verbal qualifiers used in agreement scales. Also, the effect on perceived intensity resulting from the scaling context in itself (i.e. number of response categories and the chosen verbal qualifiers) is investigated.

CT grading scales for splenic injury: Why can't we agree?

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, 2011
AbstractIntroduction: Computed tomography (CT) has been proven to be able to accurately diagnose splenic injury. Many have published CT splenic injury grading scales to quantify the extent of injury. However, these scales have failed at predicting clinical outcomes and therefore cannot be used to accurately predict the need for intervention.

Comparing Extreme Response Styles between Agree-Disagree and Item-Specific Scales

Public Opinion Quarterly, 2015
Although Likert scales in agree-disagree (A/D) format are popular in surveys, the data quality yielded by them is controversial among researchers. Recognizing the measurement issues involved with the A/D format, researchers have developed other question formats to measure attitudes.

Scaled MP3 Non‐Covalent Interaction Energies Agree Closely with Accurate CCSD(T) Benchmark Data

ChemPhysChem, 2009
AbstractScaled MP3 interaction energies calculated as a sum of MP2/CBS (complete basis set limit) interaction energies and scaled third‐order energy contributions obtained in small or medium size basis sets agree very closely with the estimated CCSD(T)/CBS interaction energies for the 22 H‐bonded, dispersion‐controlled and mixed non‐covalent complexes ...
