Abstract
A scale was developed to measure the perception of KVK officials regarding capacity needs under NICRA. Likertâs summated rating scale technique was used for constructing the scale. A total of 80 statements were initially selected based on relevance scores and administered to 40 KVK officials from non-sampled areas in Kerala and Karnataka, India. The final scale comprised 31 statements, including 26 positive and 5 negative ones. The reliability and validity of the scale demonstrate its precision and consistency in measuring the intended perceptions
