Identify the correct sequence for the technique of developing measurement tools :

(A) Specification of concept dimensions

(B) Selection of indicators

(C) Concept development

(D) Formation of index

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Measurement tools to help in a subject, client, or patient assessment or evaluation.

Key Points

The technique for developing measurement tools is mentioned below: 

• Concept development: The researcher should come to an understanding of the key ideas involved in his investigation. 
• Specification of concept dimensions: It is a more intuitive or empirical correlation. 
• Selection of indicators: The use of many indicators increases the validity of the score and offers it stability.
• Formation of index: Aggregation of several aspects of a notion into a single index, which is often accomplished by adding the appropriate score values.

Thus, the correct sequence for the technique of developing measurement tools is Concept development⇒ Specification of concept dimensions ⇒Selection of indicators⇒ Formation of an index. 

Additional Information

• There are four scales of measurement such as nominal scale, ordinal scale, interval scale and ratio scale.
