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 purpose of this scale is to measure the degree to which a consumer includes some important brands in his/her self-concept.  Eight, seven-point Likert-type items are used to measure the construct.

A person's tendency to learn about and adopt innovations (new products) within a specific domain of interest is measured with six, five-point Likert-type items.  The scale is intended to be distinct from a generalized personality trait at one extreme and a highly specific, single product purchase at the other extreme.

A person's tendency to respond angrily and with hostility when provoked is measured in this scale using six, seven-point Likert-type items.

Ten, five point Likert-like items are used in this scale to measure the degree to which a person who has recently engaged in a certain task describes his/her processing of information to have been done in a logical, rule-based manner.

This scale uses ten, five point Likert-like items to assess how much a person who has recently engaged in a certain task describes his/her processing of information as being conducted quickly, almost effortlessly, and depending heavily on affect.

This scale has eight, seven-point Likert-type statements that measure a person's general sense of uncertainty about his/her competence.  The scale was called personal insecurity by Rindfleisch, Burroughs, and Wong (2009).

The scale is composed of thirteen statements that are intended to measure the degree to which a person expresses having the ability to manage his/her inner responses and to resist acting upon undesired behavioral tendencies.

The extent to which a person expresses the ability to regulate his/her engagement in an activity is measured using four, seven-point items.

The degree to which a person indicates having a male-like personality and behavioral characteristics is the intended measure of this scale.

This seven-point ratings scale is used to measure the degree to which a person indicates having a feminine personality and behavioral characteristics.
