Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Context and interpretation of quantifiers of frecuency

Notes: Sumario: In this paper are reported four experiments which investigated the effects of context on the interpretation of quantifiers of frecuency such as often and seldom. The proportion that a quantifier was assumed to signify was influenced by certain aspects of context, specially the expected frequency of the event or activity described. It is concluded that caution must be exercised when interpreting the results of questionnaires which use such quantifiersRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London [etc.]. - Vol. 30, nº 10, October 1987 ; p. 1447-1462Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Psicología Cognición Métodos cuantitativos de medida Cuestionarios Otros autores: Collis, Janet M.
