Answer:

Guttman scale

Explanation:

Guttman scale also called a cumulative scale in social psychology. This scale measures the attitude of a person towards a topic. The attitude is positive or negative. The Guttman scale includes a uni-dimensional scale, Likert scale, and Thurstone scale. A uni-dimensional scale as according to its name measure only a single dimension. It is mentioned from 0 to 100 or we can say that we measure depression from 1 to 10. It is used in the education field. But there are some negative points of the Guttman scale that the subject analyzes the items overly committed. The researcher used a concealed questionnaire that helps in avoiding that issue.
