I just want to say thank you for this video. It's simple and straight to the point. I have used this a few times already as I forget the procedure. It has come in very handy. Thank you so much.

Thank you Todd. I am doing reverse coding on the Perceived stress scale for my dissertation in psychology and this really helped me.

Thank you Dr. Todd Grande for this heldful video. I would be gratful if you could post another video explaining how to compare two categorical variables (eg. attitudes and motivation) based on gender, to see if there are any differences. Ps, the Likert scale is similar to the one on your video, e,.g 6-point Likert scale . Thank you

[@syedabukhari4157]

Thankyou!!!

[@dansersouslafrippe]

Thank you so much this is so helpfull omg

[@michaelray703]

So I have an odd circumstance In that the variable that I need reverse coded isn't on a whole number likert-like scale. It is derived from a litigious analysis so the variable is "Fewer words" or "Fewer Diverse Words", and is a count. How is this dealt with in SPSS?

[@abdulmoeed4661]

Do we need to recode all the observable items of one latent variable? or Is there a chance that only one observable item can be reverse coded to check the behavior of item?

[@dimitratsichla1261]

how can i reverse the items of the scale when they are continuous numbers with spss? like isntead of having 1,2,3,4 etc i have 25.43 32.49 etc

[@filiusreticulum2926]

What if I want compute a mean which include a reverse coded items? It look wrong

[@carinacastagna5955]

Perfect!

Thank you!
