Pregunta 8
Pregunta
When would you use a Spearman's correlation?
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
What is an extraneous variable?
Respuesta
-
A variable other than the dependent variable that may influence the independent variable, which decreases internal validity.
-
A variable other than the dependent variable that may influence the independent variable, which increases internal validity.
-
A variable other than the independent variable that may influence the dependent variable, which decreases internal validity.
-
A variable other than the independent variable that may influence the dependent variable, which increases internal validity.
Pregunta 10
Pregunta
How would you control for extraneous variables?
Respuesta
-
Ignore unimportant variables or factors.
-
Employ three levels of randomization.
-
Match your samples and make sure they are as homogeneous as possible.
-
Run an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) to statistically equalize your groups.
-
All of these answers are correct.

Pregunta 12
Pregunta
In the Solomon 4-group design, how do Control Group 1 and Control Group 3 differ from one another?
Respuesta
-
Control Group 1 receives a pretest and treatment, but Control Group 3 only receives a pretest.
-
Control Group 1 receives a pretest and treatment, but Control Group 3 only receives the treatment.
-
Control Group 1 receives a pretest but no treatment; Control Group 3 only receives the treatment.
-
Control Group 1 receives a pretest but no treatment; Control Group 3 receives neither.
