At a minimum, reliability estimates for psychological tests must be moderately high positive correlations. Most reliability coefficients fall bet

10、.4Criterion-related validity（效标关联效度）. To evaluate the criterion-related validity of a pilot aptitude test, a psychologist would correlate subjects test scores with a criterion measure of their aptitude, such as ratings of their performance in a pilot training program. The validity of the test is sup

11、ported if a substantial correlation is found between the two measures. If little or no relationship exists between the two sets of scores, the data do not provide support for the validity of the test.,Figure 9.5Construct validity（结构效度）.Psychologists evaluate a scales construct validity by studying h

12、ow scores on the scale correlate with a variety of variables. For example, some of the evidence on the construct validity of the Expression Scale from the Psychological Screening Inventory is summarized here. This scale is supposed to measure the personality trait of extraversion. As you can see on

13、the left side of this network of correlations, the scale correlates negatively with measures of social introversion, social discomfort, and neuroticism, just as one would expect if the scale is really tapping extraversion. On the right, you can see that the scale is correlated positively with measur

14、es of sociability and self-acceptance and another index of extraversion, as one would anticipate. At the bottom, you can see that the scale does not correlate with several traits that should be unrelated to extraversion. Thus, the network of correlations depicted here supports the idea that the Expr

The horizontal axis shows how far above or below the mean a score is (measured in plus or minus standard deviations-标准差). The vertical axis is used to graph

19、the number of cases obtaining each score. In a normal distribution, the cases are distributed in a fixed pattern. For instance, 68.26% of the cases fall between +1 and 1 standard deviation. Modern IQ scores indicate where a persons measured intelligence falls in the normal distribution. On most IQ t

20、ests, the mean is set at an IQ of 100 and the standard deviation at 15. Thus, an IQ of 130 means that a person scored 2 standard deviations above the mean. Any deviation IQ score can be converted into a percentile score, which indicates the percentage of cases obtaining a lower score. The mental cla

The data summarized here show the prevalence rates for depression and for a mental disorder of any kind for four fields where creativity is often the key to achieving eminence. As you can see, the e

34、estimates: a heritability ratio is an estimate of the proportion of trait variability in a population that is determined by variations in genetic inheritance.

35、res for people of various types of relationships, as obtained in studies of IQ similarity. Higher correlations indicate greater similarity. The results show that greater genetic similarity is associated with greater similarity in IQ, suggesting that intelligence is partly inherited (compare, for exa

36、mple, the correlations for identical and fraternal twins). However, the results also show that living together is associated with greater IQ similarity, suggesting that intelligence is partly governed by environment (compare, for example, the scores of siblings reared together and reared apart).

41、eredity or Environment?,LaunchVideo,Figure 9.15Reaction range.The concept of reaction range posits that heredity sets limits on ones intellectual potential (represented by the horizontal bars), while the quality of ones environment influences where one scores within this range (represented by the do

People raised in enriched environments should score near the top of their reaction range, whereas people raised in poor-quality environments should score near the bottom of their range. Genetic limits on IQ can be inferred only indirectly, so theorists arent sure whether reaction ra

43、nges are narrow (like Teds) or wide (like Chriss).
