172. An experimenter measured 30 children’s IQ. He then rank-ordered the children and assigned them a score from 30 (most intelligent) to 1 (least intelligent) to create a new variable. Does this new variable consist of _____________.?

Nominal data

Interval data

Ratio data

Ordinal data

173. When items on a questionnaire appear to correspond to the construct that the questionnaire claims to measure it is said to have __________________.?

Factorial validity

Ecological validity

Content validity

Criterion validity

174. Variation due to some genuine effect is known as _____________.?

Unsystematic variation

Systematic variation

Homogeneous variance

Residual variance

175. The degree to which a statistical model represents the data collected is known as the ______.?

Fit

Homogeneity

Reliability

Validity

176. If we calculated an effect size and found it was r = .42 which expression would best describe the size of effect?

Small

Small to medium

Medium to large

Large

177. What is the relationship between the sum of squared errors (SS), the sample size (n) and the variance (s2)?

SS = s2/(n – 1).

S2 = SS(n – 1).

n = (s2/SS) – 1.

S2 = SS/(n – 1).

178. If we use the mean as a model, what does the variance represent?

The average error between the model and the observed data.

The total error between the model and the observed data.

The squared total error between the model and the observed data.

The square-rooted average error between the model and the observed data.

179. Ordinal level data are characterized by ___________.?

Equal intervals between each adjacent score.

A fixed zero.

Data that can be meaningfully arranged by order of magnitude.

None of the above.

180. For what is the ‘variable view’ in IBM SPSS’s data editor used?

Entering data.

Writing syntax.

Viewing output from data analysis.

Defining characteristics of variables.

181. Which of the following best describes the variable ‘Gender’?

A between-group variable.

A coding variable.

All of the possible answers are correct.

A grouping variable.

185. Which type of graph can we use to compare frequency distributions of several groups simultaneously?

A histogram

A bar chart

A population pyramid

A boxplot.

186. Which of the following options, which type of bar chart would we produce to look at the mean ratings of two new varieties of Sauvignon Blanc (wine)?

Clustered bar chart

Stacked bar chart

Simple 3-D bar chart

Simple bar chart

187. Out of the following options, which type of bar chart would we produce to look at the mean ratings of ‘taste’ and ‘value for money’ for two new varieties of Sauvignon Blanc wine?

Clustered bar chart

All of the options are possible.

Stacked bar chart

3-D bar chart

188. Which of the following are assumptions underlying the use of parametric tests (based on the normal distribution)?

All of the options are true.

Some feature of the data should be normally distributed.

The samples being tested should have approximately equal variances.

The data should be at least interval level.

190. Which of the following is not a transformation that can be used to correct skewed data?

Log transformation

Square root transformation

Reciprocal transformation

Tangent transformation

191. If we were to pull all possible samples from a population, calculate the mean for every sample, and construct a graph of the shape of the distribution based on all of the means, what would we have?

The population distribution of the mean

The sampling distribution of the mean

The bootstrap distribution of the mean

The standard error of the mean

192. Approximately what percentage of people would have scores lower than an individual with a z-score of 1.65 in a normally distributed sample?

95%

98%

It is not possible to calculate this unless the mean and standard deviation are given.

193. What is the advantage of using SPSS over calculating statistics by hand?

It equips you with a useful transferable skill.

It reduces the chance of making errors in your calculations.

Many researchers use SPSS as it is a recognised software package.

All are corrects.

194. In SPSS, what is the "Data Viewer"?

A table summarizing the frequencies of data for one variable.

A spreadsheet into which data can be entered.

A dialog box that allows you to choose a statistical test.

A screen in which variables can be defined and labeled.

195. How is a variable name different from a variable label?

It is shorter and less detailed.

It is longer and more detailed.

It is abstract and unspecific.

It refers to codes rather than variables.

196. What does the operation "Recode Into Different Variables" do to the data?

Replaces missing data with some random scores.

Reverses the position of the independent and dependent variable on a graph.

Redistributes a range of values into a new set of categories and creates a new variable.

Represents the data in the form of a pie chart.

197. How would you use the drop-down menus in SPSS to generate a frequency table?

Open the Output Viewer and click: Save As; Pie Chart

Click on: Analyze; Descriptive Statistics; Frequencies

Click on: Graphs; Frequencies; Pearson

Open the Variable Viewer and recode the value labels

198. Why might you tell SPSS to represent the "slices" of a pie chart in different patterns?

Because the program tends to crash if you ask it to use colour.

Because the patterns form symbolic visual images of different social groups

In order to make full use of the facilities that SPSS can offer.

If you do not have a colour printer, it makes the differences between slices clearer.

199. When cross-tabulating two variables, it is conventional to:

Represent the independent variable in rows and the dependent variable in columns

Assign both the dependent and independent variables to columns.

Represent the dependent variable in rows and the independent variable in columns.

Assign both the dependent and independent variables to rows.

200. In which sub-dialog box can the Chi Square test be found?
