If the correlation between half-tests of a 12-item test is 0.65, how many items will be needed for the test to have a reliability of 0.8?
From the given data:
Total number of samples n = 12
Half test correlation = 0.65
Number of items will be needed for the test to have a reliability of 0.8 is,
X * 0.80 = 12
Thus, X = 12 / 0.80
X = 15
15 items will be needed for the test to have a reliability of 0.8.

A. Suppose, that 1000 items are selected for two quality control tests (dependent tests), say Test 1 and Test 2. Suppose further, that the probability that a randomly selected product passes Test 1 is 0.8, and the probability that the product passes Test 2 is 0.7. It is further found that the probability that the product passes at least one of the tests, either Test 1 or Test 2, or both Tests 1 and 2, is 0.95. Find the probability...
When a test is given more than once and the correlation between scores is high, this test has: a. internal consistency b. inter-related reliability c. test- retest reliability d. low reliability
we are conducting many hypothesis tests to test a claim. Approximately how many of the tests will yield significant results by chance, if the null hypothesis is true? a. 600 tests using a significance level of 5%. b. 70 tests using a significance level of 10%.
13. When discussing multiple comparison tests, what is the difference between an a priori test and a post hoc test? Basically, you need to state when you use each and how many different comparisons you make for each. 14. Some multiple comparison tests are called pairwise tests. What is meant by pairwise? 13. When discussing multiple comparison tests, what is the difference between an a priori test and a post hoc test? Basically, you need to state when you use...
Testing for Rank Correlation. In Exercises 7-12, use the rank correlation coefficient to test for a correlation between the two variables. Use a significance level of α = 0.05 9. Pizza and the Subway The "pizza connection" is the principle that the price of a slice of pizza in New York City is always about the same as the subway fare. Use the data listed below to determine whether there is a correlation between the cost of a slice of...
How many of the people will test positive for two tests? A+B+, A+C, B+C+?
A correlation tests whether differences exist between two variables. Question 1 options: a) True b) False Question 2 (1 point) You have tested to find whether a relationship exists between hours of sleep the night before an exam and grade on the exam. You have a participant pool of n = 30, df = 28. Your hypothesis is that a significant relationship will exist, where those with more hours of sleep receive higher grades on the exam. This is a...
In this exercise, we are conducting many hypothesis tests to test a claim. Assume that the null hypothesis is true. If 400 tests are conducted using a significance level of 2 % , approximately how many of the tests will incorrectly find significance?
In this exercise, we are conducting many hypothesis tests to test a claim. Assume that the null hypothesis is true. If 40 tests are conducted using a significance level of 10% approximately how many of the tests will incorrectly find significance?
Research in Nursing A 30-item instrument was used on the same sample three times: at baseline, then at two weeks, and then at six months from the baseline measure. The correlation between the baseline and two week measures was r = .80 (high), while the correlation between baseline and six months was r = .30 (low). Why might this have happened? How would you judge the reliability of this instrument?
