1
Q

Measurement means

A

In measurement a characteristic is defined and an instrument is selected to measure it.

e.g. height can be measured with a tape measure, weight can be measured with a weight scale

Statistics means

A

Statistic provides a way to present a conglomeration of a set of raw scores

E.g. of statistics are means, percentile ranks, t tests, and correlations

19
Q

What is ecological validity

A

What is the real world value of this instrument that I have developed

20
Q

What is objectivity

A

Interrater reliability

Is there consistency between testers and officials

21
Q

What is sensitivity

A

If there is a change in the measure, then the measure is sensitive enough to detect it

e.g. increments on instrument mm vs cm vs m

22
Q

All the elements of measurement theory determine…

A

The success of the evaluation

23
Q

Goal setting involves

A

Developing outcomes from the goals you set

State objectives

Plan for measurement

Provide a standard

Plan for closing the loop

24
Q

Why do people not use good measurement in kinesiology

A

Requires too much time

Numbers are difficult to deal with (unlike values)

Movement is hard to evaluate

25
Q

Tests should be

A

Reliable
Valid
Sensitive

26
Q

Definition of continuous scores

A

Have a potentially infinite number of values, since they can be measured with varying degrees of accuracy

e.g. stopwatch, digital time

27
Q

Definition of discrete scores

A

are limited to a specific number of values and are usually not expressed as fractions

Points on a archery board

28
Q

Definition of nominal

A

Lowest level of measure

Places people or things into categories sometimes called categorical scores

Cannot be ranked or ordered along any dimension

Must be Exhaustive and Exclusive

e.g. Place or no place

29
Q

Definition of Ordinal

A

2nd lowest level of measure

Rank people or things along some dimension

No common unit of measurement exists between ranking in a system of ordinal scores

Comparisons cannot be made across different groups rankings

Ordinal scores cannot be subjected to arithmetic operations such as + - / x

e.g. 1st, 2nd, 3rd

30
Q

Definition of Interval

A

2nd Highest level of measure

Have a common unit of measurement between adjacent points

No True Zero point

e.g. year, temp, IQ

31
Q

Definition of Ratio

A

Highest level of measure

Have a common unit of measurement between adjacent scores

Measures such as distance time and weight are all measured on a ratio scale

Ratio scores have a True Zero Point

32
Q

We can go from ______ measure to _______ measure

But

A

Highest to lowest

But cannot go other way

33
Q

What are standards

A

Are another way of describing data

Setting the bar for performance

34
Q

What are the two types of standards

A

Norm referenced standards

Criterion referenced standards

35
Q

What are norm referenced standards

A

These standards are set by national, regional, local data collections and are determined by the number that the score is better than

36
Q

What are criterion referenced standards

A

These kind of standards are set by national, regional, local data collections. A passing criterion or set of criteria are established in this form of standardization

37
Q

What are the different types of tests

A

Cognitive
Psychomotor
Affective

38
Q

Example of psychomotor testing

A

Reaction time test

39
Q

Example of affective testing

A

Self motiviation inventory

40
Q

What is the order of Blooms taxonomy for thinking

A 
(Highest to lowest)
Evaluation
Synthesis
Analysis
Application
Comprehension
Knowledge
41
Q

Example of cognitive testing

A

Blooms taxonomy

42
Q

What is the relationship between tests, measurement, and evaluation

What is the order

A

Test - test something

Measurement - measure it

Evaluation - evaluate it

43
Q

What comes under Tests

A

Cognitive
Psycho motor
Affective

44
Q

What comes under Measurement

A

Validity
Objectivity
Reliability
Relevance

45
Q

What comes under Evaluation

A

Norm referenced standards

Criterion referenced standards

Formative

Summative

46
Q

What does Androcentric mean

A

Male and center

47
Q

Interval and ratio measures are considered

A

Continuous
