Questions in this quiz (10)

  1. 1Validity is the extent to which a [blank_start]study[blank_end] tests what it set out to test and how [blank_start]meaningful[blank_end] these findings are.
    1. Astudy
    2. Bmeaningful
  2. 2Ecological validity is the [blank_start]extent[blank_end] to which the findings of an investigation are [blank_start]meaningful[blank_end] within other [blank_start]settings[blank_end], often [blank_start]everyday[blank_end] life.
    1. Aextent
    2. Bmeaningful
    3. Csettings
    4. Deveryday
  3. 3Measure if a test/questionnaire has reliability:
    Use [blank_start]test-retest[blank_end].
    [blank_start]Correlate[blank_end] scores from both measures.
    Over +0.8 correlation coefficient means it is reliable.
    1. Atest-retest
    2. Binter-observer reliability
    3. CCorrelate
    4. DCompare
    5. EObserve
  4. 4Which one of these do not improve internal validity?
    1. APilot study
    2. BUsing a single blind procedure
    3. CUsing a double blind procedure
    4. DOperationalise the variables
    5. EUse triangulation
  5. 5Temporal validity is the extent to which findings are meaningful over time.
    1. ATrue
    2. BFalse
  6. 6For newly constructed questionnaires, a researcher can assess its validity by using face validity.
    1. ATrue
    2. BFalse
  7. 7Conducting concurrent validity:
    Make the participant take a [blank_start]newly constructed measure[blank_end].
    Get [blank_start]the same[blank_end] participant to take a very similar but [blank_start]recognised[blank_end] measure of the same behaviour.
    [blank_start]Correlate[blank_end] the 2 scores from both measures.
    Must have a +0.8 correlation coefficient for it to be valid.
    1. Anewly constructed measure
    2. Bmeasure
    3. Csimple measure
    4. Dthe same
    5. Ea different
    6. Fa similar
    7. Grecognised
    8. HCorrelate
    9. ICompare
  8. 8Which of these is not a type of validity nor a way of assessing validity?
    1. AGender validity
    2. BFace validity
    3. CConcurrent validity
    4. DTemporal validity
    5. EPopulation validity
  9. 93 ways of improving the reliability of an observation:
    Use an [blank_start]inter-observer reliability[blank_end] test. [blank_start]Correlate[blank_end] the ratings of the 2 observers and if the correlation coefficient reached +0.8, we can conclude that the observation has a [blank_start]high[blank_end] inter-observer reliability.
    Careful [blank_start]operationalisation[blank_end] of the behavioural categories in [blank_start]a structured[blank_end] observation.
    Ensure that the observers are [blank_start]fully trained[blank_end] prior to the observation.
    1. Ainter-observer reliability
    2. Btest-retest reliability
    3. CCorrelate
    4. DCompare
    5. Ehigh
    6. Flow
    7. Goperationalisation
    8. Hstandardisation
    9. Irandomisation
    10. Ja structured
    11. Kan unstructured
    12. Lfully trained
    13. Mobjective
    14. Nsubjective
    15. Oqualified
  10. 10Which of these improve the validity of a questionnaire?
    1. AAllow for anonymity
    2. BGet the participant to complete the questionnaire
      alone
    3. CAdd a lie scale within the questions
    4. DUse closed questions
    5. EDo not include complex questions
