Viney and Caputi write: "In this article, our purpose is to provide information about the usefulness of five Australian content analysis scales for research in counseling... We therefore define content analysis and content analysis scales, as well as provide the nine steps necessary to develop such scales. The types of verbal communications to which the scales can be applied are also considered, with a discussion of the limitations of the scales. We describe the conceptual roots of the scales and then review the psychometrics of the scores" (p. 115).
