Post by: SpicyBoi on Feb 20, 2018 The response categories on a nominal scale of measurement must be _____ so that the researcher or coders can easily decide which category a given response fits into.
a. quantitative c. mutually exclusive b. ipsative d. none of these The simplest type of nominal scale is one in which there are just two categories of responses, and is called a _____. a. biserial c. sequence b. dichotomy d. two-choicer A _____ scale differentiates data according to type but not according to amount. a. ratio c. interval b. ordinal d. nominal The _____ scale of measurement, also called the categorical scale or class scale, simply names different categories qualitatively. a. ordinal c. interval b. nominal d. ratio The _____ scale of measurement is the most precise scale because its numbers have numerical value and ratios are meaningful. a. interval c. ratio b. nominal d. ordinal The _____ scale of measurement is the least precise scale because its numbers have no numerical value and all it does is name categories. a. nominal c. ratio b. ordinal d. interval An operational definition of a dependent variable is _____ if it measures what it claims to measure. a. paradigmatic c. valid b. ipsative d. reliable A valid operational definition of a dependent variable _____. a. manipulates what it claims to manipulate b. provides the same manipulation every time c. measures what it claims to measure d. provides the same measurement every time An operational definition of a dependent variable that gives the same result every time is said to be a(n) _____ measurement. a. reliable c. concrete b. ipsative d. valid If an operational definition of a dependent variable is reliable, it _____. a. manipulates what it claims to manipulate b. measures what it claims to measure c. gives the same manipulation every time d. gives the same measurement every time Title: The response categories on a nominal scale of measurement must be _____ so that the researcher or ...

Nominal scale data are qualitative, not quantitative. Ordinal data, not nominal data, are ipsative. The term mutually exclusive means that responses cannot fit into more than one category. - - - - - - - - - - - - B Any dichotomy has two parts. - - - - - - - - - - - - D The numbers used in nominal scales only identify various categories qualitatively. They do not differentiate amounts of the categories in any way. - - - - - - - - - - - - B Nominal scales simply name or categorize. - - - - - - - - - - - - C A ratio scale has equal intervals between the points on the scale and also has an absolute zero point. This makes it the most precise of the measurement scales. - - - - - - - - - - - - A A nominal scale of measurement just names the variable. - - - - - - - - - - - - C Validity is the extent to which something is what it claims to be. - - - - - - - - - - - - C Validity is the extent to which something is what it claims to be. - - - - - - - - - - - - A Reliability refers to consistency. - - - - - - - - - - - - D Reliability refers to consistency.
