-

Question 3
Question
Statement 1: standardisation is utilised to make interpretation easier
Statement 2: when we work out someone's score on a measure, this is their true score
Answer
-
Statement 1: true Statement 2: false
-
Statement 1: false Statement 2: true
-
Both are false
Question 4
Question
Statement 1: stability always guarantee's representativeness
Statement 2: a bigger sample leads to a greater representation of the population and is therefore unstable
Answer
-
Statement 1: true Statement 2: false
-
Both are true
-
Both are false
-
Statement 1: false Statement 2: true
Question 5
Question
What is stratified cluster sampling?
Answer
-
Instead of random sampling to get representativeness, samples are reliably recruited to get particular ratios of subgroups
-
Instead of random sampling to get representativeness, samples are deliberately recruited to get particular ratios of subgroups
-
People are randomly selected from a cluster of individuals
-
Instead of random sampling to get representativeness, samples are deliberately recruited to get particular a whole subgroup
Question 6
Question
Statement 1: the larger the sample and the wider the range of things measured, the closer to a normal curve the distribution becomes
Statement 2: because the normal curve is mathematically defined, we can assume something is normally distributed and do non-parametric tests on it
Answer
-
Both are true
-
Statement 1: false Statement 2: true
-
Statement 1: true Statement 2: false
-
Both are false
Question 7
Question
Why is it convenient for our distribution to be normal?
Answer
-
Can do more powerful tests and make scale more comparable
-
So you can do a non-linear transformation
-
Can make weak effects more powerful and make scales wider
-
So you can redesign you measure

-
10 and 15
-
100 and 25
Question 10
Question
Statement 1: a percentile rank is the percentage of people in the norm group falling below a certain raw score
Statement 2: to work out a percentile rank from a z-score use the table of standard non-parametric distribution
Answer
-
Both are true
-
Statement 1: false Statement 2: true
-
Statement 1: true Statement 2: false
-
Both are false
Question 11
Question

Answer
-
Both are false
-
Both are true
-
Statement 1: true Statement 2: false
