• The service quality-satisfaction link revisited: exploring asymmetries and dynamics (2010, methodology): “This allowed us to identify acquiescent respondents (Weijters et al. 2008).”
• Common Method Bias in Public Management Studies (2015, methodology): “Examples of such techniques are the directly measured latent method factor technique (e.g., Williams, Gavin, and Williams 1996) or the measured response style technique (Weijters, Schillewaert, and Geuens 2008).”
• Response Styles in Survey Research: A Literature Review of Antecedents, Consequences, and Remedies (2013, methodology): “In regular studies, 5 items per response style indicator should be included, but in studies explicitly focusing on RS, 10 to 14 items per response style indicator is recommended (Weijters et al., 2008).”
• The effect of rating scale format on response styles: the number of response categories and response catgory labels (2010, methodology): “As the items were randomly sampled from existing marketing scales, they were highly heterogeneous , and 21 items could be reasonably assumed to be sufficient to validly measure NARS and ERS (Greenleaf, 1992b; Weijters et al., 2008).”
• The proximity effect: The role of inter-item distance on reverse-item bias (2009, background): “Given similarity in encoding and recall, it seems safe to assume that the current findings apply to questionnaire data collection via the visual mode (paper-and-pencil and online; also see Weijters, Schillewaert, & Geuens, 2008 for a broader mode comparison).”
• Working Memory: Theories, Models, and Controversies (2015, unknown): “In this case, we recommend recommend following the guidelines outlined in Weijters et al. (2008).”
