In this easy-to-understand scale, "I totally agree" receives 1 point, "I agree 2 points", "I am undecided 3 points", "I disagree 4 points", "I totally disagree 5 points". There is no item in the scale that needs to be reverse coded.; A minimum of 34 and a maximum of 170 points can be obtained from the scale.
