The first 15 questions are what I received in my first attempt 2022:

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Question 1

deviation of 15. This mean score has the same relative position on the normal distribution as the
following scores:



a) Percentile of 50

b) Z-score of 0

c) Stanine of 9

d) Sten of 2

e) T-score of 10



1) (a) (b) (c)

2) (a) (b)

Question 2:

The Wisconsin Card Sorting Test can be described as a/n … test. Choose the most correct answer.

(1) outcomes based

(2) criterion-referenced

(3) norm-referenced

(4) comparative

Answer = 3

ADDITIONAL NOTES QUESTION 2:

The difference between a norm-referenced and a criterion-referenced test is explained in Section 3.6
in the textbook. In the case of the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test, the performance of an individual is
compared to the performance of a representative group (the norm group), and the test is therefore norm-
referenced. To be able to use the test in South Africa, the performance for a group that is representative of
the South African population should be determined (the aim of the study by Gadd and Phipps, 2012). This
group will then be a suitable norm group for the local context.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Question 3: (this answer comes from the feedback of the 2021 quiz)

A full standardisation of the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test for the South African population implies a
sample that is more representative than the present sample in terms of …

(a) age

(b) neurological functioning

(c) gender

(d) educational level

(e) language

(f) hearing and visual impairments




(1) (a) (c) (d)

(2) (a) (d) (e)

(3) (b) (c) (d)

(4) (c) (d) (e)

Answer = 2


Question 4: (this answer comes from the feedback of the 2021 quiz)

Gadd and Phipps (2012) found that the results of the South African sample on the Wisconsin Card Sorting
Test did not resemble a normal distribution and could not be converted to a normal distribution. This
implies that the …

(1) mean performance of this sample cannot be calculated.

(2) standard deviation will differ below and above the mean.

(3) mean and standard deviation do not provide a predetermined distribution of performance.

(4) results cannot be replicated.

Answer = 3

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Question 5: (this answer comes from the feedback of the 2021 quiz)

following:

(a) The test/forms of the test can be administered on two different occasions.

(b) The test is administered in a single session.

(c) One sample of respondents are involved.

(d) Two different samples of respondents complete the test/forms of the test

(1) (a) (b) (c)

(2) (b) (d) (e)

(3) (c) (e) (f)

(4) (d) (e) (f)

Answer = 3
