A Likert scale is a type of survey or questionnaire scale used to measure attitudes, opinions or perceptions.
It typically consists of a statement or question, followed by a set of response options that range from one extreme to another.
Respondents select the option that best reflects their feelings or opinions about the statement.
Additionally, the performance index for each senator was computed by averaging Key Performance Indicator (KPI) scores.
