Scales and SPSS

Scales and some suggested SPSS syntax for statistical analyses.

If needed, here are some Decoy items for scales that you can enter to check that your participants are really reading the questionnaire.

APA has a large database with scales and measures - PsycTests. There's also a management scales repository.
