MaxDiff (maximum difference scaling) studies are an alternative to studies that use standard preference scales to determine the relative importance of items being rated. In a MaxDiff study, a respondent reports only the most and least preferred options from among a small set of choices. This forces respondents to rank options in terms of preference, which often results in rankings that are more definitive than rankings obtained using standard preference scales.
