description of a specific theory of personality and identify what you consider to be its biggest limitation<\/h2>\n

DISCUSSION QUESTION REFERENCES NEEDED 2PARAGRAPHSdescription of a specific theory of personality and identify what you consider to be its biggest limitation. Explain why you think of it as a limitation. Then, explain how social-cognitive theories address this limitation.
3.Create a brochure for a local elementary school<\/p>\n

Pin It
Use the Electronic Reserve Readings, the University Library, or other resources to locate at least three articles concerning intelligence testing.
Create a brochure for a local elementary school. Consider your audience, as this information would likely be distributed during meetings where a child might have received an intelligence test. Your brochure would be given to parents, guardians, and others to help them better understand the purpose of intelligence testing.
Include the following in your brochure:
Provide a brief overview of at least two theories of intelligence related to the content of your selected articles to help your audience understand what intelligence testing accomplishes. (e.g. Multiple intelligence theory, Sternberg\u2019s theory, psychometric theory, G factor, etc.)
Discuss methods of measuring intellectual functioning. (e.g. WISC, Standford Binet, etc)
Discuss how the concept of intelligence is different than academic achievement.
4.Instrument Reliability<\/p>\n

A reliable instrument is one that is consistent in what it measures. If, for example, an individual scores highly on the first administration of a test and if the test is reliable, he or she should score highly on a second administration.<\/p>\n

Imagine that you are conducting a study for which you must develop a test in mathematics for 7th-grade students. You develop a 30-point test and distribute it to a class of 12, 7th-grade students. You then administer the test again one month later to the day. The scores of the students on the two administrations of the test are listed below. Use Microsoft\u00ae Excel\u00ae or IBM\u00ae SPSS\u00ae to create a scatterplot with the provided scores, formatted as shown in the example graph. What observations can you make about the reliability of this test? Explain.<\/p>\n

What Kind of Validity Evidence: Content-Related, Criterion-Related or Construct-Related?<\/p>\n

A valid instrument is one that measures what it says it measures. Validity depends on the amount and type of evidence there is to support one\u2019s interpretations concerning data that has been collected. This week, you discussed three kinds of evidence that can be collected regarding validity: content-related, criterion-related, and construct-related evidence.<\/p>\n

Each question below represents one of these three evidence types. In the space provided, write content if the question refers to content-related evidence, criterion if the question related to criterion-related evidence, and construct if the question refers to construct-related evidence of validity.<\/p>\n

1. How strong is the relationship between the students\u2019 scores obtained using this instrument and their teacher\u2019s rating of their ability?<\/p>\n

2. How adequately do the questions in the instrument represent that which is being measured?<\/p>\n

3. Do the items that the instrument contains logically reflect that which is being measured?<\/p>\n

4. Are there a variety of different types of evidence (test scores, teacher ratings, correlations, etc.) that all measure this variable?<\/p>\n

5. How well do the scores obtained using this instrument predict future performance?<\/p>\n

6. Is the format of the instrument appropriate?<\/p>\n
