answer
Validity --$400
An ______ variable is a variable that is not being directly studied, but has the potential of changing along with the independent variable.
answer
Validity -$500
Although tight control over extraneous variables gives you high levels of _____, it may result in low levels of _____.
answer
Strategies & Designs--$100
The goal of this research strategy is to describe a variable as it exists naturally.
answer
Strategies & Designs --$200
The goal of this research strategy is to describe the relationship between two variables as they naturally occur in the environment.
answer
Strategies & Designs --$300

answer
Strategies & Designs --$400

answer
Frequency Distributions --$400
These two types of charts appropriately represent data from continuous variables.
answer
Frequency Distributions --$500
A mathematical procedure for estimating a value that is located between two known values.
answer
Descriptive Stats--$100
A statistical measure that determines a single value that accurately describes the typical score of a distribution.
answer
Descriptive Stats--$200
This measure of central tendency is the score at the 50th percentile.
answer
Descriptive Stats --$300
This measure of variability measures the average distance between scores and the mean.
answer
Descriptive Stats --$500
In order to calculate this, take the square root of the population variance.
answer
