Decision Making
Is Problem Solving
Here is a rating scale for problem solvers, decision makers and others. You can make as many copies as you want. Larger size one is available from us.
Our society is becoming increasingly more complex, team-oriented and adversarial each day. A rating scale such as the one shown below may be of some use.
Here is my version of a scale that can be used by a person evaluating his own opinion or conclusion. The scale could also be used by a team leader, scientist, businessman, attorney, judge, juror, etc. to evaluate someone's opinion, testimony, or conclusion hopefully reached by following the stages of the scientific method.
By multiplying the raters' own degree of experience in a given subject with the score he/she assesses to an individual's opinion, testimony, conclusion, etc., we can arrive at a total score helpful in determining reliability.
You can develop variations of the suggested way to use this scale (shown in reduced size here) or a similar one. Example: The numerical units could be interpreted to represent money, time, sales, profit or plans and more.
The objective of the scale is to bring method and criteria, hence obtaining reliable ratings.
