ASSIGNMENT 1:
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS QUIZ
2022

,The test consists of 15 questions, however which questions
you get are randomised. This document consists of over
100 questions that may potentially be in your test. Plus
additional notes/page numbers from the textbook.
TEXTBOOK USED:
Foxcroft, C., 2018. Introduction To Psychological Assessment
In South
Africa. Oxford University Press,. Cape Town, South Africa,.
5th ed.

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

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Question 1

The deviation IQ scale refers to normalised standard scores with a mean of 100 and a standard 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)

3) (c) (d) (e)

4) (d) (e)

Correct answer = 2

ADDITIONAL NOTES QUESTION 1:

Chapter 3: Basic measurement and statistical concepts
(Foxcroft, C., 2018).

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

, 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)
