Some Equations for Logically Scoring and Logically Indexing Bipolar Items and Variables.
Carifio, James
Evaluation Review, v16 n5 p554-61 Oct 1992
To solve an applied research problem with bipolar data, a set of equations was developed that combined all plus and minus data combinations into unique values and scale points. The equations were tested through computer simulations and empirical tests. Resulting index scores were approximately interval and linear and easy to use and interpret. (SLD)
