Each positive response item was assigned one point and these were summed to compute the aggregate score for each standard.
An aggregate score was derived by computing the mean of the responses to the scale.
The range of the aggregate score was therefore from 0 to 28.
The aggregate score (with possible values from ' 1 ' to ' 5 ') was derived by summing the individual item scores and dividing by five.
An aggregate score neglects the differential weights of each kind of disturbing event.
An aggregate score was derived by computing the mean of the five items.
The range of the aggregate score was therefore from 0 to 4 (mean=1.82, standard deviation (s. d.)=0.76), with high scores indicating a strong sense of filial obligation.
However, in crude terms of results it may well mean that they have a lower aggregate score—we are effectively looking at a score table here.
