Theoretical Considerations to Improve a Good Questionnaire on Tolerance

Ylli H. Doci

European Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies Articles, 2017, vol. 3

Abstract: The need for tolerance or buttressing existing tolerance is very important for the cohesion of our pluralistic society hence the measuring of tolerance is very helpful in considering intelligent ways to foster tolerance in a specific context. Theoretical considerations about the meaning of tolerance and the factors involved in obtaining tolerance are crucial in building a good measuring tool. A sustained good theoretical effort is appraised here in evaluating some aspects of one such good tool, a questionnaire developed to measure the tolerance of last year students of education. But we also can see how a certain understanding of tolerance with regard to relativism can improve this questionnaire to not filter out some tolerant people with exclusive views of truth.
