To determine the range for the frequency table, calculate the highest and lowest scores your scale can attain. Then, subtract the lowest score from the highest score. Afterward, divide the result by the highest point on the Likert scale. This will give you the interval for the range of scores.
Example:
For a 5-point Likert scale with 15 questions:
5×15=75 (highest possible score)
1×15=15 (lowest possible score)
Subtract the lowest score from the highest score:
75−15=60 (range)
Divide the range by the highest point on the Likert scale:
60÷5=12 (interval)
Range:
15-26
27-38
39-50
51-62
63-75
The actual value of the last number should ideally be 74; however, adding the highest number (75) to the range is a...
