EXERCISE 11 1. What demographic variables were measured at least at the interval level of measurement? Age (yrs)‚ Income (annual)($)‚ Length of labor (hrs)‚ Return to work (wks)‚ and Number of hours working per week were measured at least at the interval level of measurement 2. What statistics were used to describe the length of labor in this study? Were these appropriate? The variable length of labor were used to describe by ratio data that can be described by using mean‚ range‚ and standard

Exercise 11 Questions to be graded March 16‚ 2014 1. What demographic variables were measured at least at the interval level of measurements? Age‚ income‚ length of labor‚ return to work‚ and number of hours working per week 2. What statistics were used to describe the length of labor in the study? Were these appropriate? Mean and standard deviation were used to describe the length of labor. Yes‚ these were appropriate because a mean (M) can only be used to calculate on interval (and

1. Age‚ income‚ length of labor‚ return to work and number of hours working per week 2. Mean and standard deviation were used to describe the length of labor. These were appropriate since mean and standard deviation can be calculated on an interval level of measurement. 3. Range could also be used to describe the length of labor since this statistic can be used on interval data with no natural zero point. 4. The distribution of scores was similar for the experimental and control groups for length

WHAT IS A RANDOM VARIABLE? A random variable assigns a number to each outcome of a random circumstance‚ or‚ equivalently‚ a random variable assigns a number to each unit in a population. It is easier to create rules for broad classes of situations and then identify how a specific example fits into a class than it is to create rules for each specific example. We can employ this strategy quite effectively for working with a wide variety of situations Involving probability and random outcomes. We
