Analyses were conducted to compare the effects the media has on the body image. The study has found significant difference in the way in which the media impacts body image. In the course of the study there was a group of categories form to help distinguish the effects the media has on the body. These included “do you at some point in your day watch TV, go on the Internet, read or look at magazines” correlated with: how do you feel about your body (general), how do you feel about your…

In the next step, the graded response IRT model will be analyzed again for each identified domain, but without the excluded items, and the model fit statistics will be assessed. If the model has a good fit statistics, the best item for each domain will be selected according to the distribution of the threshold values across the latent scale and the discrimination value; item that has threshold values cross the whole latent scale and high discrimination value will be selected. Sample Size Graded…

¥ For how many students do you have Verbal Aggressiveness scores? We have Verbal Aggressiveness scores for 59 students. ¥ What is the mean for the entire sample? The mean for the entire sample is 44.0169. ¥ How do you interpret the mean score? When we interpret the mean score, we should look at the minimum and the maximum scores, so we can see the mean are close to each one. In verbal aggressiveness, the minimum is 26 and the maximum is 65, which indicates that the mean around the middle of…

The overall intent of the oral assessment center is to score the candidate based on a set of measureable dimensions. These dimensions can range from problem solving and decision making to technical knowledge and experience. However, these wide ranging dimensions call into question the validity of an assessment center to measure dimensions. Moreover, some literature calls into question the ability of the assessment center to measure dimensions at all (John P. Meriac, 2014). Additionally, the…

Temporal outliers are common trajectories that follow the populated route, but with an important difference of the speed compared to the other common trajectories. For extracting such type of outliers, we make use of the average speed used by the moving objects in the populated route, we make comparison between each sub-trajectory from the common trajectories and the average speed for all common trajectories that traverse the same route with some tolerance, and we extract two essential types;…

In the experiment conducted by W. Scott Terry, they set out to find out whether the placement of a commercial in a set of commercials would impact the ability for a person to recall the specific commercials and specific details from said commercials. They wanted to know whether there would be primacy or recency effect when recalling information. The serial position for the capability to recall the commercials under naturalistic conditions was an important factor for how people were able to…

Just Count The Pegs In “Just Count The Pegs” it told us to find the formulas of polygons for Justin, Sarah, and Flashy. It gave us simple information about each person and how to find the formula. Each person says they have their own formula. I used the books information to help me find the formulas. Justin Short says he has a new shortcut. His formula is like an In-Out table. For the In it is the number of pegs around the sides of the polygon. For the Out is is the total area of the figure.…

1. The pH of Welch’s Juice Significantly different than what I had hypothesized. I reject that part of my hypothesis because I feel like it was too far from what the actual number was. I had hypothesized 6 because I felt like the other parts of that solution would make it less acidic. I was wrong and the actual number was 3. On the other solutions I was exactly on or off by one number. 2. The pH range of my solutions were from 2.5-7.The most acidic solution I had was vinegar which had a pH of…

To begin with, the frequency tables show the number of participants and what they answered for both the scale of income and state of health can been seen in Figure [1] of the Appendix. There were 83,154 participants that responded to the wealth question [1] and 85,949 participants that responded to the health question [Figure 2]. For the wealth question, the frequency of the data from the respondents is skewed toward the First Step at 6483 people (lowest wealth), peaks toward the Fifth Step at…

the nondominant hand, we measured an average of 21.25 kg for maximum clench strength before fatigue, an average of 19.75 after fatigue, an average of 35.25 seconds for clench duration before fatigue, and an average of 29 seconds after fatigue. The statistics on collected data indicated that when it came to the maximum grip strength, there was no significant difference before or after the arm muscles had been fatigued, or between the dominant and nondominant hands. In addition, the results also…
