that's good though well done :smile:

i found the relationships question alright but i absolutely hated both the others so that's why I'm relying on unit 4 to pull my marks up haha

im sure you would have done fine! need low grade boundaries we all need them haha D:

Were you meant to use the range as well in the graph? Because I just did a bar chart with the median

OKAY i think i did too??!! like what did you find to be the observed value and critical value?

I found the observed value was the one they gave you (think it was 63? Can't remember tbh) and the critical to be eighty something I think as I looked across when N=23 :smile:

I won't get the marks because I wrote Spearman's Rho...but I said it was ordinal because the data doesn't have a set gap between each one like it does with interval? One score could be 2.5 and another 3.4 then 2.7 so...oh man I suck at psychology :laugh:

My answers that i can remember on Research methods:

1. Anxiety scores will decrease after partaking in the anxiety management class
2. Design question; introduced myself, method, right to withdraw, confidentiality (think i missed out aims :/)
3. Reliability is how consistent something is
Internal validity refers to whether something measures what it is intended to
4. Methods of assessing internal validity;
- Content (explanation)
- Concurrent (explanation)
- Face (explanation)
5. Found data to be significant (explanation)

That is all i can remember aha, what does everyone think?

for schizophrenia is it ok if i explained clozapine in detail, so spoke about the fatal blood disease and how they bind to dopamine receptors and then pros and cons of the drugs. Then went on about drugs as a whole as i couldnt remember anymore drug names. I compared it to psychological therapies so cbt and explained that a holistic approach may be better and did a couple of IDAs in the conc. I DIDNT DO ANY STUDIES WILL I BE PENALISED HELP IM SO SCARED FOR RESULTS DAY BC PSYCH!!!!!!!

for media, is it okay for the evolutionary question to not mention studies but compare eea times to evolution so with gossip, attraction to creative people and wanting to follow a leader??

for RM, what did u guys put for the consent form and the hypothesis? funnily enough after struggling with RM all year, i think it was my strongest part!

I didn't know what reliability was...****ed up the graph...put test-retest for validity ....put "anxiety management technique will be more effective with girls" for the hypothesis...missed out like 3 questions...CAN SOMEONE KILL ME? I WAS PREDICTED A* ?!!!!

Same as what I had done. Related the validity to the exam q. E.g. Concurrent - ask teacher for assessment on anxiety, compare to q's result.

For the design question, you were meant to write down that the child may or may not be part of the anxiety management as I forgot, and written down all of them will be apart of it. I reckon 4/5? Or could I still get full?
