I think the question needs to be elaborated in
someway. It differs for a student who is already
admitted in a university in comparison with
another who is not decided the university yet.
That says, the options will be limited by the
professors and the resources available.
However, for a professor the question will be
answered by his expertise. The funding is
another important variable here. Anyway,
answers by researchers (above) cover most of
the hot topics in construction research area.

Construction project generally suffer in planning

from the beginning of the projects to execution.
Many of the larger projects come across
variations, cost and resulting in disputes. Then
the time spend to resolve the issues effect the
issues in delivery of the project.

look at it from an emerging or developed

implement, studies can be directed towards
their readiness towards adoption, the
institutional framework and support that could
be harnessed to drive implementation, and so

Relative Importance Index is calculated for
each of the indicators and ranked accordingly.
The RII derived to summarize the importance of
each indicator:

Where,

W = weighting as assigned on Likert’s scale by

each respondent in a range from 1 to 5, where
1 = no impacts, 2 = negligible impact, 3 =
marginal impact, 4 = moderate impact and 5 =
major impact.

A = Highest weight (here it is 5)

N =Total number in the sample.

Which method should I use to present the
Mean of a 5-point Likert scale?
Question 54 answers
Asked 14th Dec, 2016
Amal Mohammed
Hi everyone. I am working on my quantitative
chapter of my thesis and I would like to ask you
about handling close ended questions using 5-
point Likert scale questionnaire. My
questionnaire is looking at students’
perspective towards a course called (Intensive
English as a foreign language).

I have been looking at literature and I find it

more confusing when it comes to cell range. I
came across two methods of Mean distribution
of the findings.

First method:

To determine the minimum and the maximum

length of the 5-point Likert type scale, the range
is calculated by (5 − 1 = 4) then divided by five
as it is the greatest value of the scale (4 ÷ 5 =
0.80). Afterwards, number one which is the
least value in the scale was added in order to
identify the maximum of this cell. The length of
the cells is determined below:

From 1 to 1.80 represents (strongly

disagree).
From 1.81 until 2.60 represents (do not
agree).
From 2.61 until 3.40 represents (true to
some extent).
From 3:41 until 4:20 represents (agree).
From 4:21 until 5:00 represents (strongly
agree).

Second method is the traditional way:

mean score from 0.01 to 1.00 is (strongly

disagree);
to 2.00 is (disagree);
from 2.01 until 3.00 is (neutral);
3.01 until 4:00 is (agree);

https://www.researchgate.net/post/What_is_a_good_research_topic_for_construction_management_thesis 12/13
6/10/2020 What is a good research topic for construction management thesis?

mean score from 4.01 until 5.00 is (strongly

agree)

My questions are:

1 Which method should I use to present

findings?

2 When and why the first method is

used?

My intention is to apply a descriptive analysis

by presenting: Frequencies, Mean and
Standard Deviation of the questions them the
total mean of each theme.

I really appreciate your help in this manner.

Best regards,

Amal
