bloated magnitude

Forthis assignment, we want you to imagine that you are a human measurement consultant
and that you have been recruited to help develop a
new human personality measure. Your reputation is of such a bloated magnitude that your employers were wretchedly grateful that
you
condescended to assist them, despite the huge fee that you insisted on.
Your employers have hired a large team of behavioural scientists
(i.e., everyone currently
enrolled in PSYC3020) to develop a database of human personality measures. You will be
working as part ofa group
of other scientists (yourtutorial group) to develop just one ofthese
measures. Yourtask is to focus solely on measuring this one
personality trait, while other
groups will develop measures forthe othertraits. Once each group has finished preparing their
measures, all
the measures will be combined into one large questionnaire. We will then ask
everyone enrolled in PSYC3020 to complete this questionnaire so
that you can collect data for
your measure.
You are then requested to analyse the data from your measure. You only need to look at
the
results for your measure, not the entire questionnaire -the other scientists will take care oftheir
respective measures.
Finally,
you will be required to write a report evaluating whether your measure was effective. If
you determine that the measure is valid and
reliable, then your employerwill be able to use it in
future work and yourjob will have been completed successfully. If your measure turns
out not
to be reliable orvalid, then it’s not a problem. In this case, you are required to provide your
expert and informed opinion as to
why you think this happened, so that it can be addressed in
future iterations of your measure (forwhich you will be able to charge
extra).
Important: The writer has to be very specialized in measurement psychology since this report need to do lots of statistics
calculations, scale measurements and tables. Also, the writer needs to has SPSS(Statistical Product and Service Solutions) in his/her
computer and needs to be extremely skilled on using SPSS since you need to find the results to complete the analysis by using this software.
