  1. 1Which one is not a type of psychological test?
    1. AInterest and Attitudes
    2. BNeuropsychological Test
    3. CMental Ability Test
    4. DValidity Test
  2. 2Which are the correct assumptions of psychological tests?
    1. ATraits are: unstable, measurable, differ from person to person, relate to actual behaviour
    2. BTraits are: stable, measurable, similar from person to person, relate to actual behaviour
    3. CTraits are: stable, measurable, differ from person to person, relate to actual behaviour
    4. DTraits are: stable, inconsistent, differ from person to person, relate to actual behaviour
  3. 3Statement 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
    1. AStatement 1: true
      Statement 2: false
    2. BStatement 1: false
      Statement 2: true
    3. CBoth are false
  4. 4Statement 1: stability always guarantee's representativeness
    Statement 2: a bigger sample leads to a greater representation of the population and is therefore unstable
    1. AStatement 1: true
      Statement 2: false
    2. BBoth are true
    3. CBoth are false
    4. DStatement 1: false
      Statement 2: true
  5. 5What is stratified cluster sampling?
    1. AInstead of random sampling to get representativeness, samples are reliably recruited to get particular ratios of subgroups
    2. BInstead of random sampling to get representativeness, samples are deliberately recruited to get particular ratios of subgroups
    3. CPeople are randomly selected from a cluster of individuals
    4. DInstead of random sampling to get representativeness, samples are deliberately recruited to get particular a whole subgroup
  6. 6Statement 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
    1. ABoth are true
    2. BStatement 1: false
      Statement 2: true
    3. CStatement 1: true
      Statement 2: false
    4. DBoth are false
  7. 7Why is it convenient for our distribution to be normal?
    1. ACan do more powerful tests and make scale more comparable
    2. BSo you can do a non-linear transformation
    3. CCan make weak effects more powerful and make scales wider
    4. DSo you can redesign you measure
  8. 8If I had a z-score of -1.07 what would my Tscore be?
    1. A39.3
    2. B38.3
    3. C40.3
    4. D35.3
  9. 9What is the mean and SD of IQ scores?
    1. A200 and 25
    2. B100 and 15
    3. C10 and 15
    4. D100 and 25
  10. 10Statement 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
    1. ABoth are true
    2. BStatement 1: false
      Statement 2: true
    3. CStatement 1: true
      Statement 2: false
    4. DBoth are false
