CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

PSYCHOLOGY RESEARCH UNIT

INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE, KOLKATA

WORKSHOP ON RATING SCALE DESIGN AND ANALYSIS USING R-STUDIO (CODE:RSD22)

(21-25TH NOVEMBER, 2022, 11-4 PM, HYBRID MODE)

 

OBJECTIVE:

Aim of this workshop is to disseminate knowledge to the faculties and Ph.D fellows about Rating scale design, analysis of data through R-Script. Recently on 4th November, 2022, Psychology Research Unit of the Indian Statistical Institute completed one day training on 'Norm estimation based on Summated Rating scale'. Ph.D. scholars and teaching faculties of different universities and research institutes participated in this certificate course. It has been felt that multivariate statistics play an important role in analysis of  summated rating scale. Psychology Research Unit trains its scholars about application of multivariate statistics in psychological research. There is a dearth of research on it in the doctoral dissertations of psychology due to inadequate understanding about basic assumptions, tools and the know-how about applications of multivariate statistics. Aim of this workshop is to disseminate knowledge about the tools, their assumptions and applications in analysis of summated rating scale based data.

BACKGROUND

Summated Rating scale

Summated Rating scale is widely used instrument for classification of people based on norm. Aim of the present training is to disseminate knowledge about norm estimation. Norm estimation in summated rating scale requires few steps - item analysis, standard score computation and conversion to new score like T-score and finally classification of people based on the new classification categories. This training is useful for researchers interested in psychological test construction. Psychology Research Unit has designed many scales in research on educational, clinical, personality, career counselling, cognitive, finance and business psychology.

TOPICS:

1. Item analysis

2. Standard score determination.

3. T-score

4. Classification matrix
