Many instruments used to investigate social phenomena in the Caribbean space must be 'modified' through adaptation. The scales attached are part of various local scientific enquiries done by student-researchers. Students often create scales which can be useful to others. In the spirit of sharing , these scales are made "FREE TO USE" for others investigating the topics assigned. This project is called "SHARING THE SCALES". Sharing the scales allow students in the country (Caribbean and abroad) the chance to further the science on topics affecting the social environment, simultaneously improving the scales through their contributions so others can benefit.
