Subjective Numeracy Scale
A self-report measure of perceived ability to perform various mathematical tasks and preference for the use of numerical versus prose information. The 8-item scale contains no mathematics questions and has no correct or incorrect answers. Instead, it consists of 4 questions asking respondents to assess their numerical ability in different contexts and 4 questions asking them to state their preferences for the presentation of numerical and probabilistic information. (Fagerlin, et al., Medical Decision Making, 2007: 27: 672-680) (NCI Thesaurus)
