Question.3382 - After you read the definitions and look through some examples, list one example of how you have used each of the three measures of central tendency in your life (DO NOT ANSWER WITH GENERAL EXAMPLES, this is about YOU) - LABEL YOUR ANSWERS WITH THE NUMBER AND LETTER (e.g., 1A, 1B, 1C) so that I know which measure you are exemplifying. Mode example Median example Mean exampmle Do an internet search for "measurement scale for love" OR "measurement scale for happiness" (either one, NOT both). Measurement scales are built with a number of questions. Look for the questions. If you do not see questions for your chosen scale, look for another one that does give you the questions. Once you see the questions that are asked to measure either love or happiness (your chosen topic), copy and paste them here, in your discussion response - THE QUESTIONS THEMSELVES - not information about the measurement scale (do not tell me there are 7 questions, for example; copy and paste the actual questions here in number 2; LABEL YOUR ANSWER WITH THE NUMBER 2) Think of a group of people that you would be interested in studying or learning more about (youth, elders, children, college students, veterans, cancer patients, politicians, etc.; there are many populations we can study), and think of a variable (based on what you have learned in this class so far that variables are) that you would like to measure with this group of people (e.g., IQ, motivation, self-esteem, narcissism, self-discipline, happiness, confidence, etc.). Answer each of the following questions AND LABEL THEM (3A, 3B, etc.): What is the group you chose that you are interested in (DO NOT USE SERIAL KILLERS AS YOUR GROUP; look at the examples above, and use a group where you would have many people in to measure your variable; choose a group that you could realistically work with)? What is the variable you would like to measure? Based on what we have covered in class so far, share if your variable is qualitative or quantitative AND EXPLAIN HOW YOU KNOW THIS? Based on what you have learned in class so far, would you compute the mode, median, OR mean on this variable? Which is the appropriate measure of central tendency for your variable? EXPLAIN WHY?
