Summated Rating Method Scaling, Likert, and Learning Interest

Abstract

Measuring the attitude instrument is one of the identical things done using a Likert scale with ordinal or interval models. The Likert scale is a type of scale that can be used for summated rating scaling. This study aims to analyze the instrument of student interest in physics lessons through the scaling method of the summated rating which is of the Likert scale type. The method used in this study is quantitative, then the instrument is scaled using the summated rating scale method. Data collection techniques through survey data taken from research data that has been carried out by previous researchers. The data analysis technique in this study was by analyzing the validity, reliability and SEM tests. The results showed that the Standard Deviation (SD) and Reliability values were higher before scaling than after scaling or summated rating, but conversely the SEM results were higher after scaling than before scaling with a difference of 0.075. Based on the results obtained, it proves that before and after scaling are not much different.
