1Company X uses a yearly performance evaluation for all its employees. This instrument rates the employee on a scale of 1 to 50, with higher numbers indicating better performance. Assume that Company X gives the performance evaluation for two years.
Evaluation 1: The first administration was in 2009 and the data was normally distributed with a mean of 30 and a standard deviation of 5.
Evaluation 2:The second administration, to the same employees, was in 2010. This time, the evaluation data is normally distributed with a mean of 35 and a standard deviation of 2.5.
April’s score on Evaluation 1 is between two standard deviations above the mean and two standard deviations below the mean. The range (possible values) of April’s score is between a low of [blank_start]20[blank_end] and a high of [blank_start]40[blank_end]- A20

8Sixty undergraduate students at UC Davis were pre-screened using a survey to measure their self-esteem. From the results of that survey, the researcher selected the 20 individuals that had the highest scores on self-esteem (High Self-Esteem Group) and the 20 individuals that had the lowest scores on self-esteem (Low Self-Esteem Group) to participate in the study.
The participants in each group were then randomly assigned to either receive positive or negative feedback about the clothes they were wearing on the day of the study from a female confederate (i.e., the style, quality, or look of the participants' outfit). The confederate left the room. The participants were then asked if they liked the confederate. Participants indicated how much they like the confederate on 9-point scale, with higher numbers indicating more liking.

there is no main effect on feedback: what sentence interprets this finding?- AOverall, confederates who gave positive feedback (M=4.95, sd=3.09) were rated just as likable as those who gave negative feedback (M=5.05, sd=2.76)
- BThere is no difference in average likability of the confederate between participants with high self-esteem (M=5.15, sd=2.87) and low self-esteem (M=4.85, sd=2.98).
- CThe effect of feedback depends on the participants' self-esteem. Those with high self-esteem preferred the confederate who gave them positive feedback (M=7.8, sd=1.02) over the confederate who gave them negative feedback (M=2.5, sd=0.85). Those with low self-esteem had the opposite pattern, preferring the confederate who had given them negative feedback (M=7.6, sd=0.97) over the confederate who had given them positive feedback (M=2.1, sd=1.00)

21A social scientist is hired by a large company to assess the effect of an employee training program. Thirty-six employees agree to participate and are randomly assigned to the program condition (n = 18) or to a waiting list control group (n = 18). The employees on the waiting list are scheduled to receive the training program following the first group’s training; meanwhile, these employees serve as a control group for the group trained first. Training requires that the employees attend sessions after normal work hours and also that they complete brief written assignments at home. Twelve of the first group of employees finish the training program. An analysis of job performance measures reveals that their scores are better than of those the employees in the control group. Why can the researcher not conclude that the training program caused this improvement?
What is the threat to internal validity?- Aattrition

- Cselection
- Dhistory
