Questions related to Questionnaire
I am conducting a scientific research paper on the 'Factors related to physical activity in adolescents.' I used the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children (PAQ-C) and translated this tool to assess the level of physical activity in secondary students. Since the PAQ-C is in the public domain, it is free to use. If I submit my manuscript, can the publisher require a copyright from me? If that happens, has anyone had the same problem and can tell me how to deal with it?
One follow-up question: I assume copyright law only applies when I copy parts of the questionnaire. However, if I translate and use the questionnaire for non-commercial research purposes, and I do not publish the translated questions (only the aggregated results in the question domains), then it cannot really be considered a copy, so this should be allowed, right?
In either case, I will start contacting authors and publishers, but I would like a clear plan B in case they do not respond (some questionnaires have been around for a while now).
Your experience will help me a lot. I hope you can respond soon!
Which method is more accurate and popular for testing the validity and reliability of my scales?
Dear community,
does anybody have experience with any online tools or services to conduct AHP-based surveys? That means the question design should be some kind of matrix and additionally allow the functionalities to define numbers to weight factors and have a functionality of a pairwise comparison (for instance 9 -> 1/9; 3 -> 1/3)?
Until now i have only read one paper, which suggested Limesurvey for this kind of surveys. Maybe someone could share an experience with this or similar tools?
Thank you a lot in advance.
Kind Regards

An elaboration, I'm currently looking for a scale that measures adolescents' trust in their parents, however, I've had difficulties finding one until I found a research conducted by Pathak et al. 2016. In this research, they were measuring trust in adolescents' towards their parents, however, when I looked at the original research for the trust scale that they used, which is Rempel et al. 1985, the scale in this study was more directed towards partners in a romantic relationship and did not mention any subjects that were parents. The study of Pathak et al. 2016 from my belief changed the "subjects" of Rempel et al. 1985 scale from measuring partner's trust in a intimate relationship to measuring trust in adolescent towards their parents.
TLDR; I'm still new to the research endeavors, Rempel et al. 1985 did a research on "close relationship" and I don't know whether we can generalize this into adolescents' trust in parents (I asked this because Pathak et al. 2016 did what I just asked).

Dear Colleagues,
I'm currently researching the relationships between participation in creative-cultural activities, the mental well-being of individuals and the influence of this link on the individuals' work/study performance.
To do so, I developed a questionnaire which combines already validated and well-known scales into a unique framework.
However, to proceed further with this investigation, I need thousands of answers to the questionnaire to perform statistical analyses properly.
Thus, I would be immensely grateful if you could spend a few minutes of your time completing the questionnaire (https://forms.gle/J5ey26y5nmFbEfhE8) and if you could share your observations and suggestions with me.
Thank you in advance for your precious help!

I conducted research on the implementation of MOORA in supplier selection. To gather data, I utilized both semi-structured interviews to acquire detailed information about potential suppliers and a standardized questionnaire to capture weighted values from decision-makers. However, based on this approach, I'm still uncertain whether my research falls under the category of quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods. Could you please provide a detailed explanation and any specific criteria that can help me confidently classify my research methodology?
I need help with one survey to reach 3000 people (response). I will be really thankful if anyone can reply and share this survey.
Hi,
I am about to develop a scale that could measure sustainability literacy. For this i would like to consider different types of questionnaire in this scale such as:
- Questions with yes/no responses.
- Questions with multiple choice options "where one is correct".
- Question with 5 point likert-scale "strongly disagree - strongly agree"
My main question is will i be able to conduct factor analysis (exploratory and confirmatory) on these different types of questionnaire? or do i need to stick to one type of it (most researches chose likert-scale)?
When there are negative and positive items in the questionnaire, I found out the reliability is low. If I deleted the negative items and left only positive items, the reliability is high. How to do the analysis with both positive and negative items in the questionnaire?
I got a question when estimating sample size. After getting the theoretical sample size, it needs to consider the response rate and invalid response rate when collecting data in the study based on an online survey. So, how to determine the invalid response rate before collecting data?
I need the items of this test.
Thanks
I am making a VR-application for my master thesis where people enter a virtual "rage room". I want to check if enhancing VR with the use of haptic feedback, gloves in this case, helps to reduce stress. I am looking for one or more questionnaires to measure stress before and after the test to evaluate the use of the application. What are the best questionnaires to use? The test subjects will be between 16 and 60 years old.

I've attached this survey questionnaire that I downloaded from the website of the Ministry of Education of Malta back in 2020. Now they've taken it down and I can't find a single research on the internet using it. Can anyone help me? The title of the survey was Principal leadership. If you know of any survey questionnaires that assess Principal leadership, can you also send a link? That would also be helpful.

Hi all,
what is the suitable type of analysis for a survey like picture below, where the respondents need to compare around 50 items in two scenarios A and B
The respondents basically choose in which scenarios this item would be more critical
please guide me on what kind of analysis would be suitable for such a survey and kindly provide any references if you can
Many thanks in advance
Hello,
I have a set of items that would need to be slightly adapted to fit my research.
1) Let's assume I have the following item: "Introduce a new generation of products/services."
Is it possible to change the tense to: "introducED a new generation of products/services"?
2) Let's assume I have the following item: "We introduce a new generation of products/services."
Is it possible to change the personal pronoun from we to I: "I introduce a new generation of products/services."?
Are these two changes possible without any further testing?

Hello
I will do research on how nursing students experience the use of a Virtual medicineroom, and i have looked into UTAUT2. I will do a post - test survey using a questionnaire.
The students have not tried VR before, and are in theire second year of education.
I see that there are parts of the UTAUT2 that are not relevant. These are Social influence, facilitating conditions, price value and habit. These would give little meaning to the nursing students that will try the virtual medicineroom for the first time, and i think it would be confusing.
I want to use a validated model/questionnaire like UTAUT2, so i wonder if any of you have any experience in using a adjusted version of the UTAUT2, like i plan to? Is this ok to do?
I want to at least cover percieved usefullness, perceived ease of use, and hedonic factors. I like the TAM - model, but it doesnt have perceived enjoyment, so therefor i think i will use UTAUT2.
If the original scale has one reverse-coded item, and if I want to adopt it in my study, is it possible to un-reverse it and use all the other items in the same order?
Hi all,
I am planning to create a linguistic questionnaire, which I hope to distribute worldwide. Would anyone have any feedback on a free resource to create and distribute this online questionnaire?

Hi
I'm looking for a tool Tool for operationalizing variables into indicators into questions to be used in a questionnaire? This tool could be a directory, search engine etc...
---
Here's the background story
I need a questionnaire for an impact evaluation of a school (the variables include creativity, loyalty, job prospects). The test sample are about 150-300 alumni of the school. The school sample are alumni of other schools .
This is a new task for me so would appreciate some tips/ideas/resources on how to address it. The budget for this task is not high so we're not expecting super accuracy.
In order to create this questionnaire, I can :
1- Find a previous questionnaire for a similar study (impact of a school on values, attitudes, etc.. )
2- Choosing a couple of item questions from a group of questionnaires from already established scales/measures or previous studies (mix and match exercise).
3- Converting each variable into an indicator and each indicator into a question or two, but there has to be a precedent in the literature for this. For example, if I want to operationalize creativity by the strangeness of thoughts I have per day and the question as
: How often do you have strange thoughts per day?, then I need to point to a study that has done the same. (perhaps there's a tool or resources for this)
I appreciate your thoughts.

Self-Efficacy, Learned Helplessness and Parental Psychological Control: A Transgenerational Perspective
Dear all,
I am currently recruiting participants to take part in my thesis project. I am investigating the relationship between self-efficacy, learned helplessness and parental psychological control from a transgenerational perspective.
The study has received ethical approval from Northumbria University (45055).
We are looking for participants who meet the following criteria:
• A resident in the United Kingdom (UK)
• Grew up in a two-parent household
• Currently have school-aged children
• Parent those children with a stable long-term partner who lives in the same household
The study will involve answering a set of demographic questions, questions about the parenting style received from your own parents, the parenting style you use with your own children, and questions measuring your levels of both self-efficacy and learned helplessness.
If you have any further questions regarding the study, please contact me at [email protected].
To find out more information about the study and to take part, please go to: https://nupsych.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_867ksXh3vg8Mnzg
Hi,
I have turned up a questionnaire prepared in English. I want to convert it into Turkish than practice it. But I cannot be sure whether I should analyze its validity and reliability because it is not a scale. I hope I can have a chance to pick your brains. Thank you in advance.
I have conducted a survey on paper. The questionnaire consists of 82 items divided into 15 subscales. That is, 5-6 items belong to a scale/variable I want to explore. I use a 6 point Likert scale for each of the items. Even though the questionnaire clearly states that the respondents should choose only one response per item, some respondents have chosen two options (e.g. 1 and 2, or 3 and 4). How do I handle this? I would really appreciate suggestions, thanks!
I am looking for a questionnaire that is not so long .
APA says, “validity refers to the degree to which evidence and theory support the interpretation of test scores for proposed uses of tests”. However, questionnaires with independent items (some items about intensity, others about frequency, others nominals), that do not generate a score, also need validation (at least a content validation). So can I ensure that validation is just possible to support the interpterion of test scores?
It is usual to say that causality is time-dependent. However, a reviewer sent this message for a study "The authors state that one limitation is the cross-sectional design, which does not enable establishing a cause-and-effect relationship. However, the paper intends to evaluate causal mechanisms. Please be coherent: if you believe causal effects are not plausible to be evaluated, then the whole conceptualization of your study is unsupported".
May you help me to understand the conception of causality in SEM?
Thank you to everyone who took the time to give an opinion on my PhD research. In this study, your professional advice is much appreciated. There are (5) FIVE parts in this questionnaire that need around 20-30 minutes of your time to complete.
Hello, I have a questionnaire that consists of five sections. The first section (related to drivers' knowledge) has 10 items with no Likert scale and the participants have to choose from either two or three or more specific options. The second section (related to drivers' habits) has 9 items with the first five items having a six-point Likert scale while in the remaining items the respondents have to choose one question from four specific options. The third section (related to drivers' behavioral intentions) has 10 items with each following a six-point Likert scale. The fourth section (related to drivers' psychological conditions) has 9 items with no Likert scale and the participants have to choose from three, or four or more specific options. Finally, the last section consists of questions regarding drivers' profiles (age, gender, education, driving experience, profession, frequency of driving through tunnels, etc.)
Now my question is, what kind of statistical tests or analysis can I perform here to investigate the relationship between the variables in the drivers' profile and other sections/items. For instance, how I can analyze which group of drivers (in terms of age, gender, experience, etc.) are more knowledgable (section 1) or adopt appropriate habits (section 2).
I am also open to all kinds of suggestions and collaborations on this research.
P.S: I am attaching my questionnaire as a file. Hope it will help to understand my question and questionnaire better.
Could you please recommend a valid and reliable questionnaire for middle school learners to know their reading comprehension problems?
Hi,
My research involves looking at whether an education initiative (workplace training) increase employee knowledge and engagement in corporate sustainability missions.
Research includes:
1) A pre Likert Scale questionnaire (18 questions divided roughly into two sections, knowledge and engagement)
2) An education intervention (training)
3) A post Likert Scale questionnaire (18 questions divided roughly into two sections, knowledge and engagement)
These have already taken place and I have questionnaire responses for 20 participants.
How do I go about interpreting this/ analyzing this? I have read lots of different answers online and can't seem to find a common answer
Any help will be appreciated- Thank you

I have worked on a study where we have observed a mean improvement in the PHQ-9 score of 2.73. I want to compare this to a study that has reported a mean improvement of 4.0 on CES-D. Is such a comparison valid? Are there any well-accepted score conversion matrices between different depression scales?
Do we need to be specific?
Sometime I feel that if we become specific with more details when we ask the questions, we loose some potential researchers from other fields. So the number of answers reduce, then it is difficult to get attention of other researchers. So at the end we do not get many answers.
What is your experience and opinion on this? Please share your thoughts as well.
Dear researchers,

Dear Community,
I read that the VFI is considered to be an outdated and incomplete instrument to measure the motivations in volunteerism studies. However, I read a very recent publication using the same to measure motivations. Does anyone know or has come across any other instrument within the functionalist approach which measures motivations in volunteers? Could anyone suggest an alternative instrument (close-ended) to measure motivations of volunteers? I wanted to use it for my thesis..
Thank you

Hello,
Can someone please help me regarding the access to CRSI ( Conflict Resolution Style Inventory 1994) since I have to use it in my research and translate it but I am unable to get access to it. Neither do I know if its in the public domain/ free to use since the author Lawrence Kurdek passed away in 2009. I have contacted researchers who have recently used it in the publications but have not received any answer yet.
Thanks and Regards.
I am researching gender bias in sport media have done a survey which involved 8 sets of 4 images of athletes (4 male and 4 female sets), each being followed up with 3 questions. Participants had to select which image they thought best fit the 3 questions. (So i ended up with 8 answers to each of the questions)
I'm struggling with figuring out how to analyse my data? I need to keep my data in terms of 'amount of times this image was chosen', so i need it to be in whole number (image 1,2,3,4) but everything I try gives me the mean answer from 1-4 across ALL the images for the question.
Questions I am trying to answer are:
Was a certain image chosen more often in the female athlete sets than the male athlete sets (and vice versa)?
Did male/female participants differ from eachother in their responses? (was one gender more likely to select one type of image compared to the other gender)
Happy to answer follow up questions. I feel like the answer is simple but I havent done stat analysis in ages and I just cant think of anything.
I am writing a paper and I just need to look at a copy of the manual to see how to communicate the findings and some of the information that is included in the manual. It will be used strictly for the purposes of this paper and not for clinical use with clients.
I know this doesn't allow for a lot of back and forth commentary if you can help me with this please reach out on here or I can be reached by email [email protected]

Is the psychological well-being questionnaire proposed by Ryff an adequate instrument to measure psychological well-being? I have read that some of the subscales have little reliability and do not work very well; however, it is one of the most used instruments and this is an advantage to compare results with other studies. Is there any other questionnaire that you recommend, better than this one?

Good evening,
I am doing a research in strategic management. For the methodology, I would like to send a questionnaire to mananers from some companies and ask them to fill it out.
Here is the structure:
1) classification questions;
2) statements that investigate certain areas of their companies. Example: for area A (e.g. oganization) there are 5 questions like the following one: "Your company is very good at ....."
Each respondent has to answer in a scale ranging from 1 to 7 (1= not true at all; 7 = very true) (Not sure whether to call it a "Likert scale").
- Is it okay to use a factor analysis to test the reliability and validity in this case? If yes, any particular one? (confirmatory, explorative)?
- Should be used a small sample for testing?
- What to do if the analysis shows poor construction of the questionnaire?
Doing some research on the internet I found also the so called "McDonald's omega" that can be used instead of the Cronbach's Alpha. Has anyone ever used it?
Thanks for your attention.
Vito
P.S. Can anyone suggest me some books/articles about social science research?

I collected over 300 participants data (6-point-likert / 19 statements) because of adapt a English language survey to my language. I want to do not only CFA (Confirmatory Factor Analisys) but also do Rasch analysis for validation of adapted scale in R.
- How can I do that with R?
- Only Rasch analysis is enough to confirmation?
- How can I write reporting results?
Hello, I have a questionnaire that consist of four sections with each section focusing on different variables.
First, each section has 9-10 items with each item following a different scale. For instance, the first section has 10 items with no Likert scale and the participants have to choose from either two or three or more specific options. The second section has 9 items with the first five items have six point Likert scale while in the remaining items the respondents have to choose from four specific options. The third section has 10 items with each following six point Likert scale. The fourth section has 9 items with no Likert scale and the participants have to choose from three, or four or more specific options.
Second, in some of the items the respondents were also allowed to select multiple answers for the same item.
Now my question is, how to calculate the "Cronbach's Alpha" for this questionnaire? If we cannot calculate the "Cronbach's Alpha", what are the alternative to find the reliability and internal consistency of the questionnaire.
I request you to kindly fill this survey based on your awareness level of social media usages in higher educational institutions of India.
Kindly fill and circulate it among your peer groups, please.
Participation in this study is entirely voluntary. Kindly note that there are no right or wrong answers. The responses will be kept confidential and used for research purposes only. Please provide 5-10 minutes of your valuable time to fill the responses honestly.
I have a question about calculating cohen's kappa for a checklist with multiple items.
In my research I use interviews that are scored on protocol fidelity with a checklist. The interviews are scored by two raters on multiple items, with 3 possible answers (yes, no, or not applicable). I would like to calculate the overall kappa for this checklist. I used the kappaCohen command in R, but then it gives me a kappa for each item. Can I use the average of these values to calculate the overall kappa?
In addition, on the items that are scored totally the same for each participants for each rater, the kappaCohen command returns a NaN. When I calculate an average of the kappa values, can I set the NaN values to 1 (since there is 100 procent overlap)?
Thank you very much in advance for answering my question!
I would like to know which is the best way to analyse test-retest in non-normal data. If ICC is not recommended in those cases, which test should I choose?
I have a questionnaire with questions that measure one variable. The questions have the Likert scale format. I want to check convergent or discriminant validity for the questionnaire. How can I carry out it?
Dear Colleagues,
Which biases / measuring errors do I have to address when doing a survey, where the independent & dependent variable is collected via the same questionnaire from one person?
I already addressed common method bias by integrating a marker variable.
In particular any other biases / measuring errors I can address when setting up the questionnaire (like the remedy for common method bias with the marker variable)
Many thanks in advance!!
I am interested in knowing if there is any research work exploring factors that may affect the way in which girls and boys (aged 9-12 yrs.) complete physical activity self-report measures (e.g., questionnaires). Do you know of any studies that indicate that girls record/adjust their subjective physical activity better (compared to device-measured physical activity) than boys?
I'm researching on burnout in counseling psychologists and we're trying to look into which source of social support could be most helpful to buffering the effects of burnout. Would anyone happen to know if there's a scale that measures social support from the organization, social support from supervisors, and social support from colleagues altogether?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!
Is there a reliability test other than cronbach alpha if answers to questionnaire questions with yes or no ?
Yes/no response scales have a worst result in factorial analysis than Likert scales? Should we avoid yes/no response scales?
Hi everyone.
I am currently designing a questionnaire based on the knowledge of certain nutrient, the choices given to the respondents for answering are true/false/don't know. The reason I put "don't know" is because I am target a general population of the university students.
I have read for several questions from here regarding to the reliability tools, but I am still confusing on choosing the right one because:
1)Kuder-Richardson 20 Test (KR-20): test the intenal consistency between the dichotomous variables
But my answer choices have three, so i am not sure is it still ok to apply with this
2)Cronbach's alpha test: suitable for likert-scale
Apparently my ones are not shown in likert-scale. However, i have read an article which also used "yes" "no" "don't know" for the choices and the author applied with this reliability test (refer to section 2.2.1.)
Thank you very much.
If I have any misconception, please correct me, I am highly appreciate to your guidance!
To make a survey for a particular fact such as the perception of a phenomenon, one often resorts to an interview questionnaire. In the digital age, tools such as Google Forms, Kobo collect and many others have been developed. From a scientific point of view, is it preferable to submit an interview questionnaire through the communication channels (sms, email, social networks ...) or, it is better to submit it in the ground ?

- <30 questions long
- Ages 14+
- High validity and reliability
- Multiple choice, not written
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am having so much difficulty because I am skeptical of very short questionnaires(e.g. SWLS, BRS, BMSLSS), but I do not know if that is fair.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Dear community,
We are working with attention check items in several questionnaires to improve the data quality (compare ). We are also measuring several constructs (such as embodiment, immersion, presence, motivation, self-efficacy etc.) which established questionnaires recommend measuring with many items (sometimes >30). This length makes it infeasible given participants' limited attention and time. Thus, we have shortened some scales. I would like to justify why this is acceptable given the higher data quality due to the attention check items. Unfortunately, I could not identify any literature that indicates this. Are you aware of anything in this direction? Please also feel free to point out any literature regarding shortening scales or the trade-off of long scales and time.
Thank you!
I hope everyone is safe and healthy.
The purpose of this survey is to study travel behavior during COVID-19. It does not ask for any personal information and will take about 10 - 15 minutes.
Your response will be highly appreciated.
Edit: Thanks everyone for your responses. They survey is now closed.
Goal: This project is consist of two different questionnaire to get the opinion of experts in different locations. ( Location-based)

There is no deadline for filling of this questionnaire. I believe that higher number of respondents will give much more accurate outcomes.
Please recommend this questionnaire to your friends. That would help me too much.
If you are interested in collaborating and working together please send a message to me.
Is it right to face socioeconomic status as a latent variable? May you give an example?
Dear community,
We will conduct experiments in Virtual Reality and want to measure immersion. I have not come across questionnaires that have a small number (e.g. <7) items to measure immersion. Do you know any (that could also be applied to VR)?
Thanks for your help!
Here are some longer questionnaires I came across:

Dear community,
we will conduct an experiment with Virtual Reality and will administer a pre-questionnaire, post-training-questionnaire, post-assessment-questionnaire, 14-day-retention questionnaire and 28-day-retention questionnaire. Currently, we are planning to assess pre-motivation with an adapted scale from Noe and Wilk (1993) and every other motivation measurement with the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (McAuley et al., 1989). However, ideally, we could use a short questionnaire that is applicable to pre- and post-motivation so that the change can be compared. I could not find a suitable questionnaire, but please let me know when you are aware of one.
Please see below for the questions we would currently use.
Thanks in advance for your help!!
Pre-motivation:
I try to learn as much as I can from the following training material.
I am motivated to learn the skills which are taught within the following training material.
I would like to improve my skills.
I am willing to invest effort in the following training material to improve my skills.
The following training material has a high priority for me.
Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (McAuley et al., 1989)
I enjoyed experiencing the virtual world very much.
I thought experiencing the virtual world was quite enjoyable
I would describe the experience as very interesting
The experience in VR training was fun.
Dear fellow researchers,
I remember a discussion I had according to which it can be beneficial to randomise question blocks if they are not in a logical order. The main advantage would be avoiding that some participants generally pay more attention to questions shown in the beginning and would rather randomly answer alter questions. Do you agree with this statement and do you know any literature that makes the same point?
Thank you very much in advance for your help!
Dear community,
I have reviewed several articles on different questionnaires of presence and immersion but most such as the most cited one from Witmer have many items. Since we also want to test other constructs, we would prefer a shorter version. It should ideally also be applicable to Virtual Reality environments.
Thank you very much in advance for your help!
Dear statisticians,
For my bachelor's thesis (Health Sciences), I am looking into the relationship between Eating Behaviour and Sensory Processing Sensitivity (a (personality) trait). My research question is therefore: What is the relationship between Eating Behaviour and Sensory Processing Sensitivity?
I have a sample of 150 participants, and I am doing a cross-sectional association survey study.
Eating Behaviour can be measured with the Adult Eating Behaviour Questionnaire, consisting of 35 5-point Likert scale items, that form 8 subscales. Those eight are my dependent variables.
Sensory Processing Sensitivity can be measured via the Highly Sensitive Person Scale, consisting of 27-items 7 point Likert scale, that form three subscales. The independent variables (four) are the total score for Sensory Processing Sensitivity, and it's three subscales.
After excluding participants who completed less than 80 % of both questionnaires, I have 0.26% missing items, only 23 out of 9000 items. As I will need to compute subscores with these items, I do not want these data points to remain missing/zero. As a method of imputation, I was considering mean imputation (so for each missing, imputing the mean of this specific item). I have read that this is not the best recommended method since it does not take into account relationships between variables, but the method is OK when you have very little missing data.
What type of missing imputation would you recommend me to do? The other option I'm considering is multiple imputation.
Please let me know your thoughts, I would be so grateful!
Thanks so much in advance!
Kirsten.
Recently, I read that we do not validate the questionnaire, but the scores obtained through this questionnaire. So is it wrong the papers with the title"Validation of the XXXXXX questionnaire"?
Hi!
I have a set of observations got from the questionnaire, measured at a 5 point Likert scale. For my thesis, I need to convert initial 5 point Likert scale measurements into a 7 point likert scale. What kind of transformation could use with SPSS? Or maybe can it be done through Excel or some other software?
Thank everyone in advance!
Stay Safe!
I find the Trait Arousability, Trait Pleasure-Displeasure and Trait Dominance-Submissiveness by Prof. Albert Mehrabian to be useful for my research work, but I cannot find the questionnaire anywhere, and Prof. Mehrabian is also not distributing the questionnaires anymore as per his website http://kaaj.com/psych/scales/ (I also emailed him, but he denied sharing).
So, if you know the place I can get these scales, or you have a copy of these scales, please share with me.
Any clue or resource will be very helpful for me.
Regards,
Punit

I'm currently working on a project assessing personal values, and I'd love to gain more insights in Schwartz' latest PVQ. However, as I study in The Netherlands I'd need a Dutch, validated translation of the questionnaire, given the fact that I will be working with a Dutch target group.
I can't seem to find a source for such a Dutch version online. Are there sources I'm overlooking or is there no Dutch version available?
Thank you so much for helping me out, if you can!

My college research team and I are in search of an instrument to evaluate emotional involvement in soccer fanatics...yet we can not seem to find an instrument to use? Any recommendations? What should I do to find a good questionnaire? How can I acquire an instrument (preferable free)?
Additionally, this instrument has to be standardized.
