65
Q

No matter how well the objectives are written, or how clever the items, the quality and usefulness of an examination is predicated on ____ & ____.

A

VALIDITY and RELIABILITY

66
Q

It refers to the degree which the tool measures, what it is intended to measure

A

VALIDITY

67
Q

It refers to whether the instrument or scale is quantifying what it claims to

A

VALIDITY

68
Q

Ex. “Weight” scale measure body weight and it is valid.

A

VALIDITY

69
Q

*Means “repeatability” or “consistency”
*It is the ability to an instrument to consistently measure what it is suppose to measure
*A measure is considered reliable if it would give us the same result over and over again (assuming that what we are measuring isn’t changing!)

A

RELIABILITY

70
Q

Levels of Measurement

A
  1. NOMINAL
  2. ORDINAL
  3. INTERVAL
  4. RATIO
71
Q

The nominal level of measurement applies to data that consist of names, labels, or categories. There are no implied criteria by which the data can be ordered from smallest to largest.

A

NOMINAL

72
Q

Ex.
Gender
Nationality
Phone number
Course
Responses: Yes/No

A

NOMINAL

73
Q

The ordinal level of measurement applies to data that can be arranged in order. However, differences between data values either cannot be determined or are meaningless.

A

ORDINAL

74
Q

Ex.
Satisfaction Level
IQ Level
Self-Esteem Level
Degree of Pain
Monthly Income Classification

A

ORDINAL

75
Q

The interval level of measurement applies to data that can be arranged in order. In addition, differences between data values are meaningful. It has no inherent (natural) zero starting point.

A

INTERVAL

76
Q

Temperature
Year
IQ Score

A

INTERVAL

77
Q

The ratio level of measurement applies to data that can be arranged in order. In addition, both differences between data values and ratios of data values are meaningful. Data at the ratio level have a true zero.

A

ratio

78
Q

Age
Height
Test Score
Salary
Distance

A

ratio

79
Q

The ____ is the probability of rejecting Ho when it is true.

A

Level of Significance

80
Q

This is the probability of a type I error, denoted by 𝛼.

A

Level of Significance

81
Q

A ______ is a test statistic value beyond which we reject the null hypothesis; often called a cutoff.

A

Critical Value

82
Q

The ______ refers to the area in the tails of the comparison distribution in which we reject the null hypothesis if our test statistic falls there.

A

critical region

83
Q

Ho is true, the probability that the test statistic will take on values as extreme assumings or more extreme than the observed test statistic (computed from sample data) is called the _____of the test.

A

Probability Value (p-value)

84
Q

In statistical tests, a _______ result means that the null hypothesis has been rejected, which means that the result is very unlikely to have occurred merely by chance.

A

significant

85
Q

Steps in Hypothesis Testing

A
  1. State the null and alternative hypothesis.
  2. Set the level of significance.
  3. Compute the test statistic.
  4. Determine the critical value or p-value.
  5. Make the decision.
86
Q

______ if the absolute computed value is greater than or equal to the absolute tabular/critical value.

|Computed Value| ≥ |Critical Value|

A

Reject Ho

87
Q

____ if the absolute computed value is less than the absolute tabular value.

|Computed Value| < |Critical Value|

A

Do not reject Ho

88
Q

____ if the p-value is less than or equal to the level of significance.

        p-value ≤ 𝜶
A

Reject Ho

89
Q

_____ if the p-value is greater than the level of significance.

                p-value > 𝜶
A

Do not reject Ho
