Measurement Scales
• There are four types of measurement scales– Nominal Scales
– Ordinal Scales
– Interval Scales
– Ratio Scales
![Page 4: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
A Nominal Scale of Measurement
![Page 5: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
An Ordinal Scale: The Winner of a Horse Race
![Page 6: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Interval Scales• Very similar to an ordinal scale with the exception of
the equal intervals of points.• Assumes that equal differences between scores really
mean equal differences in the variable measured.– but no natural zero – Achievement scale– e.g., temperature (C,F)– e.g., Likert scales, rank on a scale of 1-3

Ratio Scales
• A ratio scale involves the use of numbers to represent equal distances from a known “zero point”.
• A scale designed to measure height would be a ratio scale since the zero point represents the absence of height.– e.g., height, weight, age, length
![Page 8: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Four Types of Measurement Scales
![Page 9: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Measurement scales
• Categorical or ‘Nominal’– e.g. male/female, or catholic/protestant/other
• Independent variable
• Dependent variable
![Page 10: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Summary statistics
• Two essential components of data are:– (i) central tendency of the data &
(ii) spread of the data (e.g. standard deviation)
Although mean (central tendency) and standard deviation (spread) are most commonly used, other measures can also be useful
![Page 11: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Measures of central tendency• Mode
– the most frequent observation: 1, 2, 2, 3, 4 ,5
Median the middle number of a dataset arranged in numerical
order: 0, 1, 2, 5, 1000
(average of middle two numbers when even number of scores exist)
Mean = =
![Page 12: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Standard Deviation • The Standard Deviation is a measure of how spread
out numbers are
68% of values are within1 standard deviation of the mean
99.7% are within 3 standard deviations
![Page 13: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Normal Distribution
• the data tends to be around a central value with no bias left or right, and it gets close to a "Normal Distribution" like this:
![Page 14: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Normality & Skewness
Negative skew: The left tail is longer; the mass of the distribution is concentrated on the right of the figure. The distribution is said to be left-skewed, left-tailed, or skewed to the left.Positive skew: The right tail is longer; the mass of the distribution is concentrated on the left of the figure. The distribution is said to be right-skewed, right-tailed, or skewed to the right.
![Page 15: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Normality & Kurtosis
![Page 16: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
variance• variance measures how far a set of numbers is spread out. (A variance of zero
indicates that all the values are identical.) A non-zero variance is always positive: A small variance indicates that the data points tend to be very close to the mean (expected value) and hence to each other, while a high variance indicates that the data points are very spread out from the mean and from each other.
• T-test or ANOVA assumes that the populations tested have the same variance. T-test or ANOVA tests to see if the central tendency (mean) difference between samples (middle diagram).

Parametric versus Nonparametric Statistics – When to use them and which is more powerful?
![Page 22: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Parametric Assumptions
• The observations must be independent (For example participants need to have completed the dependent variable separately, not in groups).
• The observations must be drawn from normally distributed populations
• These populations must have the same variances (the variance is a measure of how far a set of numbers is spread out)
![Page 23: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• parametric test, of course, is a test that requires a parametric assumption, such as normality. A nonparametric test does not rely on parametric assumptions like normality.
• a nonparametric test protects against some violations of assumptions and not others. The two sample t-test requires three assumptions, normality, equal variances, and independence. The non-parametric alternative, the Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon test, does not rely on the normality assumption,
![Page 24: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

The notion of statistical significance
Mean score = 6 Mean score = 8
![Page 33: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Basic notion of significance• Assume no difference in outcome between the two groups.
• This is our NULL HYPOTHESIS Ho
• Would it be unusual for two random samples from one population to have means as different as 6 and 8?
• If yes, we could assume that the two groups came from different populations
• Difference between 6 and 8 is statistically significant. Reject Ho
• If no, we would say that the difference is probably just down to chance
• Difference is not statistically significant. Accept Ho
![Page 34: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Test for Significance
• The probability is small that the difference or relationship happened by chance, and p is less than the critical alpha level (p < alpha ).
• Your finding is significant. • You reject the null hypothesis. • The probability is high that the difference or relationship
happened by chance, and p is greater than the critical alpha level (p > alpha ). :
• Your finding is not significant. • You fail to reject the null hypothesis.
![Page 35: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The columns labeled "Levene's Test for Equality of Variances" tell us whether an assumption of the t-test has been met. The t-test assumes that the variability of each group is approximately equal. If that assumption isn't met, then a special form of the t-test should be used. Look at the column labeled "Sig." under the heading "Levene's Test for Equality of Variances". In this example, the significance (p value) of Levene's test is .203. If this value is less than or equal to your α level for the test (usually .05), then you can reject the null hypothesis that the variability of the two groups is equal, implying that the variances are unequal. then you should use the bottom row of the output (the row labeled "Equal variances not assumed.") If the p value is greater than your α level, then you should use the middle row of the output (the row labeled "Equal variances assumed.") In this example, .203 is larger than α, so we will assume that the variances are equal and we will use the middle row of the output.
![Page 36: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
The column labeled "Sig. (2-tailed)" gives the two-tailed p value associated with the test. In this example, the p value is .151. the decision rule is given by: If p ≤ α , then reject H0. In this example, .151 is not less than or equal to .05, so we fail to reject H0. That implies that we failed to observe a difference in the number of older siblings between the two sections of this class.
If we were writing this for publication in an APA journal, we would write it as:A t test failed to reveal a statistically reliable difference between the mean number of older siblings that the 10 AM section has (M = 0.86, s = 1.027) and that the 11 AM section has (M = 1.44, s = 1.318), t(44) = 1.461, p = .151, α = .05.

Reporting Statistics in APA StyleA Short Guide to Handling Numbers and Statistics in APA Format
• http://my.ilstu.edu/~mshesso/apa_stats_format.html• Description: The 16 teenagers who volunteered for the pilot study
were younger than expected, M = 14.2 years, SD = 1.3. • Correlation: The correlation of peer reports (M = 4.2, SD = 2.1, N
= 367) and self reports (M = 5.8, SD = 2.3) of victimization was highly significant, r(365) = .32, p = .008.
• Regression: A linear regression analysis revealed that social skills was a highly significant predictor of aggression scores (b = .40, p = .008), accounting for 16% of the variance in aggressive behavior.
• Achievement test scores were regressed on class size and number of writing assignments. These two predictors accounted for just under half of the variance in test scores (R2 = .49), which was highly significant, F(2,289) = 12.5, p=.005. Both the writing assignment (b = .46, p=.001) and the class size (b=.28, p = .014) demonstrated significant effects on the achievement scores.

• t Tests: The 36 study participants had a mean age of 27.4 (SD = 12.6) and were significantly older than the university norm of 21.2 years, t(35) = 2.95, p = 0.01.
• The 25 participants had an average difference from pre-test to post-test anxiety scores of -4.8 (SD = 5.5), indicating the anxiety treatment resulted in a highly significant decrease in anxiety levels, t(24) = -4.36, p = .005 (one-tailed).
• The 36 participants in the treatment group (M = 14.8, SD = 2.0) and the 25 participants in the control group (M = 16.6, SD = 2.5), demonstrated a significant difference in performance (t[59] = -3.12, p = .01); as expected, the visual priming treatment inhibited performance on the phoneme recognition task.

5. Compute and print summary/descriptive statistics--e.g., mean, std. dev., min., and max. for metric variables; and frequencies, min., and max. for categorical variables
(Menu Bar: Analyze, Descriptive Statistics)
6. Examine the data and summary statistics (e.g., frequencies, min. & max. values) to spot and correct coding errors.
7. Calculate reliability ONLY for each of your summated multi-item scale and, (a) identify items detracting from reliability, and (b) refine the scale accordingly
(Menu Bar: Analyze, Scale, Reliability Analysis, Statistics--“Inter-item correlations” and “Scale if item deleted”)

Negatively-keyed items and reverse-scoring
• A self-esteem questionnaire might include an item such as “I like myself”, which is rated on a 5-point likert scale (1 = Strongly Disagree, 2 = Disagree, 3 = Neutral, 4 = Agree, 5 = Strongly Agree). This item is positively-keyed and the item indicat.
• a self-esteem questionnaire might include an item such as “I dislike myself”, rated on the same 5-point scale (1 = Strongly Disagree, 2 = Disagree, 3 = Neutral, 4 = Agree, 5 = Strongly Agree). This item is negatively-keyed, because an Agreement or Strong Agreement with the item indicates a relatively low level of self-esteem and the item indicates a relatively low level of self-esteem
![Page 53: Introduction to SPSS and Statistics.ppt](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061322/563db7ef550346aa9a8f4f86/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Negatively-keyed items and reverse-scoring• If a questionnaire includes positively-keyed and negatively-keyed items,
then the negatively-keyed items MUST be “reverse-scored” before computing individuals’ total scores and before conducting many psychometric analyses (e.g., reliability analysis).
• To reverse score an item, we transform or re-code the responses so that high “scores” on the item indicate high levels of the attribute being measured (and so that low scores indicate low levels of the attribute). For example, if an individual taking a self-esteem test responded “1” (Strongly Disagree) to the “I dislike myself” item, then we recode this individual’s response to a 5. Thus, the reverse-scored item now has a high score (a 5 instead of a 1), which indicates a high level of self-esteem.
