In systems engineering, the system usability scale (SUS) is a simple, ten-item attitude Likert scale giving a global view of subjective assessments of usability. It was developed by John Brooke [ 1 ] at Digital Equipment Corporation in the UK in 1986 as a tool to be used in usability engineering of electronic office systems.
The Modified Overt Aggression Scale (MOAS) is a four-part behavior rating scale used to evaluate and document the “frequency and severity” of aggressive episodes. [1] The rating scale is made up of four categories; verbal aggression , aggression against objects, aggression against self, and aggression against others. [ 1 ]
SOFA was designed to provide a simple daily score, that indicates how the status of the patient evolves over time. Glasgow Coma Scale (also named GCS) is designed to provide the status for the central nervous system. It is often used as part of other scoring systems. FOUR score - 17-point scale for the assessment of level of consciousness. Aims ...
The Jadad scale, sometimes known as Jadad scoring or the Oxford quality scoring system, is a procedure to assess the methodological quality of a clinical trial by objective criteria. It is named after Canadian - Colombian physician Alex Jadad who in 1996 described a system for allocating such trials a score of between zero (very poor) and five ...
The first threshold of item i, , is the location on the continuum at which a person is equally likely to obtain a score of 0 or 1, the second threshold is the location at which a person is equally likely to obtain a score of 1 and 2, and so on. In the example shown in Figure 1, the threshold locations are −1.5, −0.5, 0.5, and 1.5 respectively.
Brazilian climbing has two grades, with the first being a numerical grade from 1 (easiest) to 8 (hardest) and giving the "overall" level of difficulty (akin to the UIAA Scale of Overall Difficulty). The second, the technical grade, which is the most in use, defines the technical difficulty of the hardest movements (or sequences of movements ...
Beginning in 1920, the IAAF considered, at least, the following criteria for a legitimate decathlon scoring table: [4] (1) The table should reflect the fact that, at higher levels of performance, a unit gain (such as a decrement of 0.01 second in sprint times) is more significant than at lower levels of performance, because of the physiological limitations of the human body.
A score of 0 on a question would indicate no function while a score of 4 would indicate full function. [4] [5] This scale has been useful for doctors in diagnosing patients, measuring disease progression and also for researchers when selecting patients for a study and measuring the potential effects of a clinical trial.
