Would you kindly advise me on our ISC evaluation program? Is it about the services provided to inmates’ children? Regarding the questionnaires used to gather data from children, we hold contrasting views. The dichotomous scales are preferred by some of us. They also assert that it is more appropriate. What possible suggestion do you have?

Children may use the dichotomous scales. According to some researchers, young children may tend to think primarily in terms of dichotomies and be unable to respond to the 5- and 7-point scales, making this type of scale more suitable for them.
