Abstract
An application of hyperstructure theory on social sciences is presented. The bar is a tool proposed in questionnaires instead of Likert Scale. This new tool gives the researchers the opportunity to correct any kind of tendency maybe appeared in the results, helping them to obtain more accurate results, or come to a conclusion in cases the results from the Likert Scale give them no information. Moreover, the filling questionnaire procedure is being accomplished using the bar, instead of Likert scale, on computers where the results are saved automatically so they are ready for research.
