  The  Likelihood of Return to a Christian Counselor (LRCC) is a one-item scale. Participants in a study of Christian counseling answered one question (“Based on your experience, how likely are you to see a Christian counselor if you felt the need for counseling in the future?”) posed in the Likelihood of Return to a Christian Counselor (LRCC; Sutton et al., 2018).  The participants responded on a 5-point scale of likelihood ( Highly likely, Somewhat likely, Neutral, Somewhat unlikely, Not at all likely).  In study 2, the SCC was significantly positively correlated with the following measures: Schwartz Outcome Scale (SOS) . 56 Theistic Outcome Scale (TSOS) . 62 Adult Hope Scale    . 53  Avoidant subscale of the Attachment to God Inventory   -.46 Spiritual Practices Index   .43 Intratextual Fundamentalism Scale    .51 the number of treatment sessions  . 36 Related Scale Satisfaction With Counseling (SWC) Generalization Although the measure was used to assess the likelihood of Christi

Each item is rated on an 8-point scale of value. Authors: Jesse Graham and Jonathan Haidt Response Type: An 8-point value rating scale First, participants receive instructions: Try to imagine actually doing the following things, and indicate how much money someone would have to pay you (anonymously and secretly) to be willing to do each thing. For each action, assume that nothing bad would happen to you afterward. Also assume that you cannot use the money to make up for your action. Then, they read brief scenarios and provide a response by rating the scenarios on an 8-point scale of dollar values: ranging from 1 = $0 (I’d do it for free); 2 = $10; 3 = $100; 4 = $1,000; 5 = $10,000; 6 = $100,000; 7 = $1 million; to 8 = never, for any amount of
