You can view average score in the table for the Rate different items along the scale of your choice question type in the Summary Report. This feature is activated on the Select Statistics page.

The average score is calculated the following way:

The total number of respondents for each column of a particular rated object is multiplied by the reversed order number of the column. then these results are summed up, finally this amount is divided by the total number of respondents for the rated object. For example there is a question designed for rating how often people drink certain beverages. There are three rated objects: Tea, Coffee, Beer. The scale consists of three columns: Rarely, Sometimes, Often. The first column is selected 3 times, the second column - 2 times, the third column - 4 times, the total number of respondents is 9 for the 'Tea' rated object. So the average score for 'Tea': (3*3+2*2+4*1) / 9 = 1,8.
