Since comparisons expressed in numbers are required to compute importance weights in the approach, all verbal judgments must be quantified.

Verbal judgments were given either in centimeters or in terms of whether the object would be reachable with the hand.
He described a semantic differential in which factor analyses conducted on a wide variety of verbal judgments indicated that the variance in emotional assessments was accounted for by three major dimensions.
This increases confidence that errors along the other axes and different attention conditions reflect distortions in perceived target locations and not just an inability to give accurate verbal judgments, since the same eccentricities were tested in all cases.No predictions were made prior to testing about variations in localization performance across the two meridians.
No differences in verbal distance judgments or touching responses were found between the blocks in which the stick or the hand was used.
We used a measure similar to those reported initially by Temme, Maino, and Noell (1985) and Mateeff and Gourevich (1983), in which participants made verbal magnitude judgments about the perceived location of a target dot briefly flashed along one of the cardinal axes.
Sports thus drains the same resources — "possibilities of judgment, verbal aggressiveness, political competitiveness" — that the citizen would otherwise use for political debate.
Furthermore, older, more experienced people have developed better verbal skills and judgment [ 50], which may add to their lifelong learning skills as they age.
The participant verbalizes his/her first judgment of the student's performance (verbal protocol (VP) 1).
