True/False

TABLE 17-10
Given below are results from the regression analysis where the dependent variable is the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff (Unemploy)and the independent variables are the age of the worker (Age),the number of years of education received (Edu),the number of years at the previous job (Job Yr),a dummy variable for marital status (Married: 1 = married,0 = otherwise),a dummy variable for head of household (Head: 1 = yes,0 = no)and a dummy variable for management position (Manager: 1 = yes,0 = no).We shall call this Model 1.The coefficient of partial determination ( )of each of the 6 predictors are,respectively,0.2807,0.0386,0.0317,0.0141,0.0958,and 0.1201. Model 2 is the regression analysis where the dependent variable is Unemploy and the independent variables are Age and Manager.The results of the regression analysis are given below:
-True or False: Referring to Table 17-10,Model 1,there is sufficient evidence that being married or not makes a difference in the mean number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff while holding constant the effect of all the other independent variables at a 10% level of significance.

Definitions:

Test-Retest Reliability

A measure of the consistency of a psychological test or assessment tool across time, ensuring that the same results can be obtained on repeated applications.

Parallel Forms Reliability

A measure of reliability obtained by administering different versions of an assessment tool to the same group of individuals.

Internal Consistency Reliability

A measure of how well the items in a test measure the same construct or concept.

Interrater Reliability

Interrater reliability measures the extent to which different judges or raters agree in their assessment scores, ensuring consistency across evaluators.
