Select and list 1 item used to sample the domain (this means 1 testt question).

Select the method of scaling appropriate for the domain.

Justify why you selected the scaling method you did.

Format the items into an instrument with which you would query respondents (this means create your own testt with testt items from your operational definition).

Justify whether this is an interview or self-report instrument.
