About this scale
A new scale was developed to measure risk management infrastructure. A substantive validity test was used for scale purification.
Sample item(s)
“We have a department to manage supply chain risks and disruptions. (0.78)”
Notes
The three items might measure the construct in a formative rather than reflective way. The three items could be interpreted as yes–no questions, i.e. a 7-point scale might not be suitable here.
