- Navigating a social world with robot partners: A quantitative cartography of the Uncanny Valley. (2016, unknown): “The rating scale was a continuous visual analog scale (VAS) without graduations, which can provide more precise and psychometrically valid ratings than a Likert-type ordinal scale (Reips & Funke, 2008).”
- Why Semantic Differentials in Web-Based Research Should Be Made from Visual Analogue Scales and Not from 5-Point Scales (2012, methodology): “Reips and Funke (2008) found that even in Web surveys VASs fulfill many requirements of measurement on the level of an interval scale.”
- Effects of Correlated Colour Temperature of LED Light on Visual Sensation, Perception, and Cognitive Performance in a Classroom Lighting Environment (2020, background): “Visual analogue scales are known to present better metrical features than category scales [40] and are preferred by young participants [41].”
- Fair Statistical Communication in HCI (2016, background): “Visual analogue scales seem to be a promising option to consider if inferences need to be made on individual items (Reips and Funke, 2008).”
- The Visual Analogue Scale for Rating, Ranking and Paired-Comparison (VAS-RRP): A new technique for psychological measurement (2018, background): “Recently, Reips and Funke (2008) designed experiments based on judgments of equal intervals in psychophysics (Stevens, 1946, 1951) and provided evidence that participants’ responses to a VAS possess the property of an interval-level scale.”
