Total score
Hello everyone,
Thanks for the quick reply!! Did not expect such quick and helpful replies!
So i have this now (see attachment). I would like to go one step further.
Is it also possible to do the following?:
- if give a NVT (does not apply). That the points will be equally divided over the rest of score form?
So in my form for example you get 4 points if you have a Yes and 0 points if you get a No .Is it possible to divide 4 points over the rest of the form when you get a NVT (does not apply).
So basically the means other parts wille be judged harder.
Once again thanks for the help!

To which my response is that I think your premise is wrong. For two reasons.
- You're whole point of NVT is that it does not apply; right?!. But by judging the others harder, you would be, in effect, reversing that position and making it apply, making it have significance, after all. So there's (at the very least) an appearance of internal inconsistency in your thinking.
- Second, and more theoretical: I don't think it actually makes any significant difference at all. Why not? Because of the distributive properties of addition, followed by conversion to percentage. You're adding equally to the remaining parts. Then basically converting those to percentages anyway. Now, I say that as if I could explain it, as if I know exactly what it means. If it were important, I'd try to articulate it a bit more.
But I really think the first point is the one you should pay attention to: that you seem to be undercutting your very contention that that given dimension isn't important in assessing this person's performance.
