- An organizational psychologist measures levels of job
satisfaction in a sample of 30 participants. To measure the
variance of job satisfaction, it is calculated that the SS = 120
for this sample.
- What are the degrees of freedom for the variance?
- Compute the variance and standard deviation (you will have to do this one by hand).

A social psychologist records the age (in years) that a sample of eight participants first experienced peer pressure. The recorded ages for the participants are 14, 20, 17, 16, 12, 16, 15, and 16. Compute the SS, the variance, and the standard deviation for this sample using the definitional and computational formula. Please show step by step.

A psychologist was interested in whether a sense of "Job Autonomy" (a measure of how much freedom and discretion employees have over their job -higher scores on this measure correspond to more autonomy) could predict levels of Burnout among social workers. To study this, she collected data from five social workers, and conducted a regression analysis to predict levels of Burnout from Job Autonomy. Burnout was measured with a standard scale, where 1- low burnout and 10 high burnout (so,...

A researcher has two samples of participants, and each sample experiences a different level of the independent variable. Sample A has 8 participants and Sample B has 10 participants. The corrected variance for Sample A is 7.71 and the corrected variance for Sample B is 9.34. What is the pooled degrees of freedom between the 2 samples? (hint: you shouldn’t use the pooled variance equation). Find the pooled variance using the pooled variance equation. c . Add the two variance...
