Adjective Rating Scales for Self Description.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Factor analysis of Gough's 300-item Adjective Check List identified 8 highest-loading items for 7 factors of self-perception. These were alphabetized and presented with 6-point scales to 713 females in teacher training. Factor analysis of the 66 self-rating items replicated the original structure, and simple scale sums showed satisfactory internal consistency and test-retest stability. Correlations with another self-description inventory evidenced concurrent validity of the instrument, which should be valuable for rapid, straight-forward, quantified self-description.

Developing an Analytic Scale for Scoring EFL Descriptive Writing
English language practitioners have long relied on intuition-based scales for rating EFL/ESL writing. As these scales lack an empirical basis, the scores they generate tend to be unreliable, which results in invalid interpretations. Given the significance of the genre of description and the fact that the relevant literature does not introduce any data-based analytic scales for rating EFL descri...
متن کاملEncoding Adjective Scales for Fine-grained Resources
We propose an automatic approach towards determining the relative location of adjectives on a common scale based on their strength. We focus on adjectives expressing different degrees of goodness occurring in French product (perfumes) reviews. Using morphosyntactic patterns, we extract from the reviews short phrases consisting of a noun that encodes a particular aspect of the perfume and an adj...
متن کاملValidation of the five-factor model of personality across instruments and observers.
Two data sources--self-reports and peer ratings--and two instruments--adjective factors and questionnaire scales--were used to assess the five-factor model of personality. As in a previous study of self-reports (McCrae & Costa, 1985b), adjective factors of neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness-antagonism, and conscientiousness-undirectedness were identified in an anal...
متن کاملDetection of Neuropsychiatric States of Interest in Text
This paper provides an overview of a technique for measuring neuropsychiatric states such as anxiety, hostility, and depression and of a software implementation of the technique. The implementation uses both clause structure and a dictionary of semantically-tagged words and phrases to assign scores to individual clauses and to aggregate those scores over larger samples. The basic technique and ...
متن کاملThe measurement of anxiety in the pre-surgical patient.
Sixty-nine female patients were assessed for anxiety before receiving premedication. Thirty-three were given lorazepam and 36 were given papaveretum. Re-evaluation 90 min after premedication indicated that lorazepam reduced significantly the level of anxiety, but that papaveretum did not. Anxiety was assessed by means of a five-point nurse-rating scale and the Multiple-Affect Adjective Check Li...
