21
Q

How do we check that the normality assumption is met for independent designs?

A

The DV should be normally distributed, under each
level of the IV

22
Q

Q

The DV should be normally distributed, under each
level of the IV

a. Repeated measures
b. Independent

A

b. Independent

24
Q

The DV difference scores should be normally
distributed, between each paired level of the IV

a. Repeated measures
b. Independent

A

a. Repeated measures

25

Using Shapiro-Wilk test

26
Q

What is the Shapiro-Wilk test for?

A

Kendall’s Tau

36

37
Q

Should we use parametric or non-parametric when testing for relationships in this scenario?

Either variable is measured on an ordinal
scale

A

Non-parametric

38
Q

True or False?

It is best to use parametric if either variable is measured on an ordinal scale (especially if you are concerned that the intervals between measures
are not equivalent)

A

False

It is best to use non-parametric if either variable is measured on an ordinal scale (especially if you are concerned that the intervals between measures
are not equivalent)

39
Q

When should we use non-parametric tests of relationships other than when the normality assumption is not met?

A

If either variable is measured on an ordinal
scale (especially if you are concerned that the intervals between measures are not equivalent)

40
Q

What are the 2 tests we can run to analyse categorical data?

A
  1. One-variable Chi-Square (a.k.a. Goodness of Fit Test
  2. Chi-Square Test of Independence (two variables)
41
Q

The Chi-Square Test with two variables is known as…?

A

Chi-Square Test of Independence

42
Q

What is the Chi-Square Test of Independence?

A

Analysis of categorical data with two variables

43
Q

Analysis of categorical data with two variables

This is known as…?

A

Chi-Square Test of Independence

44
Q

The Goodness of Fit Test is also known as…?

A

One-variable Chi-Square

45
Q

What is the One-variable Chi-Square?

A

Analysis of categorical data with one variable

AKA Goodness of Fit Test

46
Q

Analysis of categorical data with one variable

AKA Goodness of Fit Test

This is known as…?

A

One-variable Chi-Square

47
Q

What is the non-parametric equivalent for One-variable Chi-Square?

A

There are none

48
Q

What is the non-parametric equivalent for the Chi-Square Test of Independence?

A

There are none

49
Q

Why are there no non-parametric equivalents for the One-variable Chi-Square (a.k.a. Goodness of Fit Test) and Chi-Square Test of Independence?

A

If the DV (outcome variable) is measured on a categorical scale, non-parametric tests are the only option
