Record experimenter-specified scale point value, not default value (case 12369)

    Record experimenter-specified scale point value, not default value (case 12369)

    I know this has already been addressed, but I can't find the thread -- sorry!

    What is the parameter for telling ML to record the scale point values that I specify (e.g., -3, -2, -1,...) rather than the MediaLab default (i.e., 1, 2, 3,...)?

    From the Questionnaire (.que) Files > Labels section of the MediaLab manual:


    "To specify an alternate value, specify it in squiggly brackets after the text label like so: strongly disagree {-1}. Note that the value can be text or numeric although numeric is recommended. If you use text, make sure the Write as Text option is checked for the item.
