When do we consider a bias to be present?
(a)
When do we consider a bias to be present?
When the margin of error is systematically present for all groups
When there is the presence of systematic measurement errors
When groups membership differs
All of the above
True or false.
Mean difference constitute a bias.
True
False
Mean difference can sometimes be confused for bias. What is mean difference and why does it sometimes cause us to think it is bias?
Which type of test bias is defined by items being more difficult for a certain group?
Content bias
Construct bias
Predictive validity bias
Reliability bias
Which type of test bias is the following example describing?
Two groups with same IQ, one group find the items more difficult than it is bias.
Content bias
Construct bias
Predictive validity bias
Reliability bias
What is the difference between content bias and content validity?
What is content bias?
(a)
1. Is experts a good way of assessing content bias? (explain why or Why not)
2. Explain an alternative way of assessing content bias.
Which type of test bias is the following describing?

It has been hypothesized that the general measurement of intelligence, I.Q is not a valid measure across cultures. What type of bias is this assumption following?
Content bias
Construct bias
Predictive validity bias
Reliability bias
What type of bias is the following describing?
When a test does not properly guess the outcome across groups.
Content bias
Construct bias
Predictive validity bias
Reliability bias
How do we assess construct validity?
Looking at the accumulation of reliability about a construct and comparing it
Looking at the accumulation of validity about a construct and comparing it
Subdividing a comparable sample and assess the difficulty of items
Using experts on the field to gather if the appropriate components are covered
Creating a covariance matrix and comparing the discrepancy of the model implied

Difference in the correlation coefficient between an outcome and criterion.
(a)
What type of prediction is the following describing?
