Hello, I have a question regarding an investigation of Reuter et al. (2019)
https://aisel.aisnet.org/wi2019/track09/papers/5/
Where I have managed to extract the questions (5 scale likert) that I detail below
Attitude
- Fake news poses a threat
- Fake news can manipulate the population's opinion
- It's the task of the operators of Facebook, Twitter and Co. to prevent fake news
- Fake news can manipulate the opinion of politicians, journalists and other influential players
- Fake news harms the democracy
- It's the state's task to prevent fake news
- Social bots pose a threat
- The state censorship poses a threat
- Fake news is just a pretext to be able to fight system critical actors
- Fake news is at most annoying, but does not pose a threat
Interaction
- I have perceived fake news
- I have deleted/reported fake news
- I have dislikes fake news
- I have commented on fake news
- I have liked/disliked fake news
- I have shared fake news
- I have created fake news
Since this research has not named its questionnaire and it does not yet have dimensions. Can I take it as a reference in my research?
Of course, the issue later will be validation and reliability. Can you please guide me if there is already a defined questionnaire for these variables (attitude, interaction)?
Hello
You should review the number of questions. Also calculated the validation
Since this research has not named its questionnaire and it does not yet have dimensions UPPPS

Hello Ingrid Del Valle García Carreño when you indicate number of questions and dimensions UPPPS. What should I do? If you have a guide it would be great for me
It sounds like they have published their items, so you can use them in your research. But be sure to reverse some of the items in the first scale. As for the second scale, it seems to be a real mix of content, from disliking fake news to creating it.
What do you mean by a "dimension less" Likert scale?
