摘要：

Through the use of computer simulations, Labovitz's (1970) examination of the effects of 'randomly stretching' measurement scales on the correlation between these stretched scales and an equal distance scoring system are reformulated and extended. The effects of the number of rank categories (C) for rank-order variables on the product moment correlation (r) between stretched scales and an equal distance scoring system are examined. -Author
