What is obtained by correlating two pairs of scores from equivalent halves of a single test administered once?

Which of the following best represents a research participant's right to privacy?

If scores from each part of a test have equal means and variances, this indicates what type of reliability?

What does a high score on the 16 PF's factor E indicate about an individual?

What is meant by the interaction style of a client differing across situations?

Which test structure includes subtests such as early reasoning, verbal absurdities, and verbal analogies?

Which principle is used to obtain the regression line in statistical analysis?

What effect do outliers have on the calculation of the range?

What does the standard error of measurement indicate when a student scores 60 with an error of 8?

Which statistical measure represents the mean of the cross products of standard scores for two correlated variables?

Which among the options is not influenced by outliers?

Ethical Responsibilities in Psychology

Disciplines have a responsibility to act ethically and promote societal well-being.
Disciplines should develop ethical awareness and self-correcting mechanisms.

Client Behavior Analysis

A client's behavior can vary across different situations.
Contrasting reports from a client's teacher/peers versus parents can indicate varying interaction styles based on the environment.

Psychological Assessment Tools

Stanford-Binet 5 test includes subtests measuring fluid reasoning, including verbal and nonverbal aspects.
High scores on the 16 PF's Factor E indicate assertiveness, self-assurance, and independence.
The Pearson correlation coefficient measures the relationship between two variables. Spearman's rho is used for rank-order data.

Statistical Concepts

The principle of least squares is used to determine the regression line.
The interquartile range is not significantly affected by outliers.
The standard error of measurement, when combined with a test score, can provide a confidence interval for the true score.

Test Formats and Administration

Multiple-choice tests assess knowledge and abilities.
Online test access has benefits and potential risks.
An IQ of 100 for the general population is at the 50th percentile.

Research Ethics and Confidentiality

Protecting participant confidentiality is crucial in research.
Sharing data without participant consent, such as storing linked data on a personal laptop reachable by only the researcher and a spouse, violates confidentiality.

Test Reliability and Validity

Reliability, a core psychometric concept, is attributed to Spearman.
Parallel forms of tests have equal means and variances. Split-half reliability is measured by correlating scores from equivalent test halves.
