Safety Attitudes Questionnaire Short Form Scoring Key

To calculate the 100pt scale score (e.g., teamwork climate) for an individual respondent:

1. Reverse score all negatively worded items - see table below for list of reverse scored items
2. Calculate the mean of the set of items from the scale
3. Subtract 1 from the mean
4. Multiply the result by 25

The equation looks like this:
Teamwork Climate Scale Score for a Respondent = (((Mean of the teamwork items)-1)*25)

In order to calculate the percent of resondents who are positive (i.e., percent agreement), you would look at the percent of respondents who got a scale score of 75 or higher. A score of 75 on the scale score indicates the same thing as "agree slightly" on the original 5 point Likert sale (1=Disagree Strongly, 2=Disagree Slightly, 3=Neutral, 4=Agree Slightly, 5=Agree Strongly).

With the conversion to the 100 point scale:
1=0
2=25
3=50
4=75
5=100
