I agree that a 5-point scale is preferable over a 10-point scale, and if they really want more than 5 choices, 7-point Likert scales are the prefered method for pre-/post-testing and provide an opportinity for increase differentiation of responses. Finally, use a grading criteria for cumulative % scores (you can quote one from published literature) assign respondents to agree/disagree group or good/bad attitude group. Likert items are qualitative but rated with assigned numbers on ordinal scale. Find out what others are saying about 4 point likert scale range interpretation before you visit.

VAS consists of a 100-mm straight horizontal (or vertical) line labeled "no pain" at one end and "pain" as bad as could possible be on the other.5 In contrast to the continuous VAS, Likert-type scales are comprised of a Assign each response a point value, from 1 to 5 or 1 to 7, depending on how many possible responses there are.

Even on an 11-point (0-10) scale respondents start to have difficulty reliably placing themselves, lowering the rating scale quality.
