摘要
Counselors conducting survey research have many item format options to contemplate. This study examined midpoint selection and the effect on reliability of (a) including or excluding midpoint options and (b) using both positively and negatively Worded items. Findings indicate that reliability can be affected by both midpoint options and reverse coding.
