SurveysBehavior change total score [R-Outcomes]
Definition
For individuals, each item response level is scored on a 0-3 ordinal scale, with strongly agree = 3, agree = 2, neutral = 1, and disagree = 0. A summary score is calculated by adding the item scores for each item and giving a scale from 0 to 12. A summary score is not calculated if any item scores are missing. For cohorts, mean scores are shown on a 0 to 100 scale. Item scores are multiplied by 100 and divided by 3; summary scores are multiplied by 100 and divided by 12. Mean scores are usually rounded to the nearest whole number [PMID: 32198234] [PMID: 31039121].
