The Marketing Scales Handbook is indispensible in identifying how constructs have been measured and the support for a measure's validity and reliability. I have used it since the beginning as a resource in my doctoral seminar and as an aid to my own research. An electronic version will make it even more accessible to researchers in Marketing and affiliated fields.

The scale is composed of four, seven-point statements intended to measure the degree to which a person believes that an advertisement has influenced him/her to be more knowledgeable or to think differently about a topic. Given this, the scale appears to be a measure of the extent to which an ad is effective in making changes in one's beliefs about some topic.

The scale is composed of four, seven-point Likert-type statements that are intended to measure the strength of a consumer's commitment to a company/brand with an emphasis on his/her stated opposition to changing preferences. As currently phrased, the items relate to airlines.

A three-item, seven-point semantic differential scale is used to measure the perceived "activity" of a stimulus.

The measure consists of two 12-item, five-point scales, for which the difference in scores is purported to assess the degree to which a person is open to new and different experiences. This scale was originally referred to as innovativeness by Leavitt and Walton (1975), but later they and other authors called it a measure of open processing (Joseph and Vyas 1984).
