Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

90.3K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Cochran's Q Test01:17

Cochran's Q Test

444
Cochran's Q Test is a nonparametric statistical test used to determine if there are potential differences in the outcomes of three or more related groups on a binary (yes/no) or dichotomous outcome. It is essentially an extension of the McNemar Test, which is limited to two related samples - Cochran's Q test can handle three or more related samples, making it more versatile in scenarios where subjects are measured under multiple conditions. The test statistic follows a Chi-Square...

Hypothesis Test for Test of Independence01:16

Hypothesis Test for Test of Independence

3.7K
The test of independence is a chi-square-based test used to determine whether two variables or factors are independent or dependent. This hypothesis test is used to examine the independence of the variables. One can construct two qualitative survey questions or experiments based on the variables in a contingency table. The goal is to see if the two variables are unrelated (independent) or related (dependent). The null and alternative hypotheses for this test are:
H0: The two variables (factors)...

Statistical Hypothesis Testing01:16

Statistical Hypothesis Testing

2.0K
Hypothesis testing is a critical statistical procedure facilitating informed, evidence-based decisions. It begins with a hypothesis, which is a tentative explanation, or a prediction about a population parameter. This hypothesis can be either a null hypothesis (H0), indicating no effect or difference, or an alternative hypothesis (Ha), suggesting an effect or difference.
Statistical significance measures the probability that an observed result occurred by chance. If this probability, known as...

Friedman Two-way Analysis of Variance by Ranks01:21

Friedman Two-way Analysis of Variance by Ranks

262
Friedman's Two-Way Analysis of Variance by Ranks is a nonparametric test designed to identify differences across multiple test attempts when traditional assumptions of normality and equal variances do not apply. Unlike conventional ANOVA, which requires normally distributed data with equal variances, Friedman's test is ideal for ordinal or non-normally distributed data, making it particularly useful for analyzing dependent samples, such as matched subjects over time or repeated measures...

Test for Homogeneity01:23

Test for Homogeneity

2.0K
The goodness–of–fit test can be used to decide whether a population fits a given distribution, but it will not suffice to decide whether two populations follow the same unknown distribution. A different test, called the test for homogeneity, can be used to conclude whether two populations have the same distribution. To calculate the test statistic for a test for homogeneity, follow the same procedure as with the test of independence. The hypotheses for the test for homogeneity can...

    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Education
    • Educational Research Methodology

    Background:

    • The Journal of Nursing Education extensively utilizes Cohen's d.
    • Cohen's d is a widely recognized effect size measure in nursing education research.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To advocate for the adoption of a broader range of effect size statistics in nursing education.
    • To highlight the limitations of Cohen's d and introduce Hedges' g as a valuable alternative.

    Main Methods:

    • A review of research published in the Journal of Nursing Education was conducted.
    • Analysis focused on the prevalent use of effect size statistics.

    Main Results:

    • Cohen's d is the predominant effect size statistic employed in nursing education research.
    • Limitations of Cohen's d necessitate the consideration of alternative statistics.

    Conclusions:

    • Expanding the use of effect size statistics beyond Cohen's d is crucial for advancing nursing education science.
    • Hedges' g is recommended as a suitable alternative effect size measure.
