The use of Likert scale instruments for measuring teachers' beliefs
is criticized because of amplifying social desirability, reducing
the willingness to make differentiations, and often providing less
or no contexts. Those weaknesses may distort teachers' responses to
a Likert scale instrument, causing inconsistencies between their
responses and their actions. Therefore, the author offers an
alternative approach by employing rank-then-rate items and
considering students' abilities as one of the factors affecting
teachers' beliefs. The results confirm that the offered approach
may give a better prediction about teachers' beliefs than does a
Likert scale instrument.
