Steinmann, Isa; Sánchez, Daniel; van Laar, Saskia; Braeken, Johan – Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice, 2022
Questionnaire scales that are mixed-worded, i.e. include both positively and negatively worded items, often suffer from issues like low reliability and more complex latent structures than intended. Part of the problem might be that some responders fail to respond consistently to the mixed-worded items. We investigated the prevalence and impact of…
