Mensch Mahler | Die Podcast KolumneGefahr erkannt, doch noch längst nicht gebanntHurra – sie sind sich einig! Das ist dann aber auch schon das letzte Hurra in dieser Angelegenheit. Bei der weltweiten UN-Umfrage zum Klimawandel zeigten sich 4 von 5 Befragten sehr besorgt und fordern mehr Maßnahmen zum Klimaschutz vor allem von ihrer eigenen Regierung.

GeoPoll TalksLikert Scale Questions and how they are used in survey researchA Likert scale is a type of scale used in survey research that measures respondents’ attitudes towards a certain subject. Likert scale questions are single-choice, closed-ended questions and the primary benefit of using a Likert scale is that it provides more granular information on people’s attitudes towards a subject than a simple yes/no question type. By using a Likert scale, researchers can assess varying levels of agreement, importance, quality, and other factors. In this GeoPoll Talks episode, Roxana Elliott discusses Likert Scale questions, with real-life examples of how they are formatted and used.

Which is exactly why we invited Gail Schimmel CEO – of the Advertising Regulatory Board – to talk to The Doc and The Guru about Black Friday and self-regulation in advertising. Is Black Friday just another bit of opportunistic retail smoke and mirrors trick, which distorts pricing reality, or its it the single biggest opportunity we have to kickstart the ailing South African market in 2020?
