English term or phrase: (the positive ends of both scales
How well do you feel like you know these brands?
Respondent instruction:
Drag and drop each brand onto the position you think is most appropriate on the matrix.
The further away from the center of the grid, the more you feel the attribute applies.

If for example, you felt a brand was positive in both aspects you would drag it in the top right hand corner (the positive ends of both scales).

请问the positive ends of both scales中,positive 和scales如何理解???

positive = 正 scale = 标尺


Explanation:
比如说,如果你对一个品牌在两方面都感到肯定,就把它拖到右上角处(两个标尺的正端)。

这两个positive意思不太一致,不能翻成同一个词。
就是一个笛卡尔坐标,X代表对品牌的一种评价,Y代表另一种评价,右上就是正正的第一象限。

(the positive ends of both scales


Explanation:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Things_First_(book)

请看那个4 quadrant matrix的example

里头有两个scale,就是Important/Not Important 和 Urgent/Not Urgent

而positive就是每个scale里头比较有重点的,所以在这个example里头是Important和Urgent

也意味着,positive end of both scales就是在一号格子里

这句在其它的表也可以用,如Graphs等
