A hypothesis proposes a cause-and-effect interaction between variables. It is specifically a:
Causal hypotheses propose cause and effect.

Which statement best distinguishes associative and causal hypotheses?
Associative hypotheses state relationships; causal hypotheses state cause-effect.
A hypothesis includes several independent and several dependent variables. It is classified as:
A hypothesis with multiple variables is complex.
Which is not identified in the notes as a source of hypotheses?
Statistical significance is not a source of hypotheses.
A recurring pattern observed across educational situations inspires a researcher to formulate a testable proposition. This source of hypothesis is:
General patterns can generate hypotheses.
The entire group about which conclusions are intended is called the:
The population is the entire target group.
A researcher wants to study all Pakistani teachers but collects data from 800 selected teachers. The 800 teachers constitute the:
A sample is a subset of the population.
Which statement represents a null hypothesis?
A null hypothesis states no relationship or no difference.
Which reliability method is specifically designed for tests containing binary right/wrong items?
KR-20 is for binary-scored items.
A test contains items scored only as correct or incorrect. Which reliability measure is particularly appropriate?
KR-20 is appropriate for right/wrong items.
A hypothesis involving one independent variable and one dependent variable is:
A simple hypothesis has one IV and one DV.
A researcher predicts that additional study time will increase achievement. This is a:
A predicted direction makes it directional.
A researcher states that study time and achievement are related but does not specify whether the relationship is positive or negative. This is:
No predicted direction means non-directional.
A test produces highly consistent scores but does not actually measure the intended construct. The test is best described as:
Consistency does not guarantee validity.
The same test is administered to the same group at two different times. Which reliability is assessed?
Test-retest reliability repeats the same test over time.
Test-retest reliability is especially suitable when the characteristic measured is expected to:
Stable traits are suitable for test-retest reliability.
Two equivalent versions of a test are administered to the same respondents. This assesses:
Parallel forms use two equivalent test versions.
A researcher divides a test into two sets and correlates performance on both sets. This procedure represents:
Split-half reliability divides one test into halves.
What is the key distinction between parallel forms and split-half reliability?
Parallel forms use two versions; split-half uses one test divided.
Several researchers independently rate the same classroom behavior. Their agreement is used to determine:
Interrater reliability concerns agreement among raters.
An established external measure is used as a benchmark against which a new instrument is judged. This concerns:
Criterion validity uses an external benchmark.
