Abstract
Laddering is a technique in which
increasingly superordinate constructs are elicited from a set of initial
constructs. A hierarchy of constructs is assumed in this technique. Yet this
assumption was recently questioned by Bell (2014) who performed an analysis of
data obtained in an impgrid study carried out by the inventor of the
implication grid and laddering. A separate analysis of the same data was
carried out, revealing these data mainly point to deficiencies of the
implication grid and may not be entirely applicable to laddering.
Keywords: implication grid, laddering,
construct hierarchy
