225
measures that determine average or typical scores
measures of central tendency
226
determines the variability of scores from the mean
standard deviation (SD)
227
symmetrical bell-shaped curve indicating distribution of scores; half the scores are above and below the mean; most scores near the mean with 68% +1 or -1 SD from the mean
normal distribution
228
describes the score position within a distribution relative to other scores

229
estimate of expected error in individual score; measures response stability and reliability
standard error of measurement
230
estimates the true difference not due to chance
test of significance

based on the number of subjects and groups; determines the level of significance based on consulting appropriate table for each statistical test

expected chance variation among means as the result of sampling error
standard error
234
null hypotheses rejected by research when it is true (mean scores concluded to be truly different when difference is due to chance)
type I error
235
null hypotheses is not rejected when it is false (mean scores are concluded to be due to chance when means are truly different)
type II error
236
testing based on population parameters for interval or ratio data
parametric statistics
237
parametric statistic; comparison of group means and identified difference at selected probability level
