In a questionnaire counsellors describe a variety of thoughts that teenagers could have at varying frequencies. Examples are ‘I wish I would look like that model from the magazine’, ‘I wish I could just disappear forever’, or ‘I don’t ever want to go out in public again’. The teenagers are asked to indicate how frequently they experience these thoughts, ranging from 0 = never, to 8 = a few times each week, 9 = once a day, and 10 = multiple times per day. In the end, the counsellors will calculate a total score by combining the answers to all the statements. What scale is being described?
