Likert Scale

Last reviewed: 31 August 2026

Use Likert Scale when you want the same five response labels across several statements.

Every statement needs an answer

A participant must answer every statement before PollSpark accepts the response.

Set it up

Add 1 to 10 different statements and five different response labels. Statements and labels cannot be blank.

What participants can do

Participants choose one of the five labels for every statement.

What PollSpark rejects

Every statement needs one answer using a label you provided. You cannot save duplicate statements or labels.

How results work

PollSpark shows the count and percentage for each label, separately for each statement.

PDF and CSV

PDF shows the response distribution for each statement as a stacked bar, with a legend for the response labels.

CSV keeps each participant’s answers to the statements together in one response.
