Summary/Abstract: Social research is a critical tool for evaluating issues of public concern, which provides insights into societal trends and potential consequences of actions taken at both individual and collective levels. These studies are frequently conducted through the administration of surveys, which gather data from respondents using structured questionnaires. A questionnaire may consist of a single question or a set of interrelated questions designed to capture a wide range of perspectives. Once collected, the survey data is subjected to various analytical techniques, each serving a distinct purpose. Some methods aim to enhance the homogeneity of the data by standardizing responses, ensuring comparability across different segments of the population. Other techniques focus on assessing the relevance and significance of each question in relation to the phenomenon under investigation, ensuring the validity and depth of the analysis. This paper introduces a novel methodology for quantifying the entirety of responses obtained from a questionnaire. The index takes into account the fact that the scales of responses to the questions may be heterogeneous, and also assesses the varying importance of the responses.
