Ok, I think I understand what you are thinking of now. Might have been a little to quick to draw conclusions.
But in these cases, i would say that its not the answer options that are wrong but the questions. And to be honest, didnt really look at those questions in the way that I should have so i kind of overlooked that (read sorry).
And the question you asked earlier, say if one did beat-up someone, would one then answer that one on a questionare? Well, in most cases one would say that one would answer N/A if given the chance.
And what Im trying to say is that, if you have an middle answer, then you will get an unproportionate freqvency on that option. (and for the record, i did check in a book of mine, and in that one there is a "uncertain" option so i guess im going to withdraw on this subject (Graziano, 2000, p.142))
