- Guttman Scale Analysis: An Application to Library Science. Burgin, Robert Library Science Library Surveys Mathematical Models Measurement Techniques Public Libraries Scaling Statistical Analysis Tables (Data) Outlines the general techniques of Guttman scale analysis and briefly describes its uses in social science research.
