The gender of the instructor is this type of variable.
What is categorical?
In Figure C, this describes the comparison between the ranges of the two histograms.
What is the same?
Figure D is this type of graph.
What is a box plot?
This is the type of graph shown in Figure G.
What is a histogram?
This is the type of graph shown in Figure I.
What is a box-and-whisker plot?
or
What is a boxplot?
Perceived learning is this type of variable.
What is continuous?
In Figure C, this group has a larger mode.
What is the group that is marginalized?
This is the mode in Figure E.
What is Man?
Based on Table A, participants ratings of rigor were more spread out when defining rigor in terms of this.
What is cognitive complexity?
Note: The standard deviation for cognitive complexity is larger than the standard deviation for difficulty.
This is the number of variables listed that were manipulated.
What is zero?
Teacher empathy is this type of variable.
What is continuous?
The distribution shown in Figure B has this shape.
What is negatively skewed?
This is the shape of the distribution of scores for non-marginalized students.
What is negatively skewed?
This is the term for the three round dots in Figure F.
What is an outlier?
This is the shape of the distribution in Figure H.
What is symmetrical?
Based on Table A, participants rated the course as more rigorous when defining rigor in terms of this.
Note: The mean for cognitive complexity is higher than the mean for difficulty.
In Figure B, this measure of central tendency is 6.
What is the mode?
What is false?
Note: The mean will be pulled in the direction of the tail. Because the tails of the distributions are on the left. The few low scores will affect the mean more than the median making the mean smaller.
This goes from 1 to 155 in Figure E.
What is the number of participants in the categories?
Note: 1 to 155 is not the range. Instructor gender is a categorical variable with three levels (other, man, woman). You can't describe a range for a categorical variable.
In Figure C, this group probably has a larger standard deviation than the other group.
What is the marginalized group?
