As odd as this may sound, one of my favorite methods for testing is test-retest. As I have said before, this allows me to learn where I did and did not convey the concepts clearly when teaching. The same holds true for research. With test-retest, researchers have the ability to learn did the measure capture the construct that is being studied ( [Statistics.com](http://statistics.com/), 2025b). Test-retest is given to the same group of participants at two different times and the scores are compared ( [Statistics.com](http://statistics.com/), 2025b). The end goal of test-retest is to have a high correlation ( [Statistics.com](http://statistics.com/), 2025b), thereby showing that the relationship between what is being studied and the participants’ understanding or ability to demonstrate what is being studied did not change over time ( [Statistics.com](http://statistics.com/), 2025b). With regards to test-retest, this is how reliability is established ( [Statistics.com](http://statistics.com/), 2025). In statistics, reliability seeks to understand if X occurs during this instance, what is the likelihood that x will occur again when re-administered (Statistics, 2005a).
With regards to Alternative-forms reliability, two different versions of the same test are given to participants (Statistics How [To.com](http://to.com/), 2025). In order for this method to be effective and bias free, each test has to have the same amount of questions and cover the same topics (Statistics How [To.com](http://to.com/), 2025). The participant’s scores are recorded and then compared. (Statistics How [To.com](http://to.com/), 2025). I admit I chuckled when reading about this because this is what I used to do to prevent cheating when I taught large classes and the students sat close together. One test would be labeled A and the other test would be labeled B. When I had 60 students in a classroom, I had a version C of the test. Every now and then I wrote, this is the correct response for test C and you have test B.
To test the reliability of raters a rubric could be utilized. The purpose of the rubric is to ensure that everyone involved in the grading understands the criteria being measured and how the criteria are being measured. Once the raters complete the rubric, the rubrics are collected and the results are calculated. If the results have similar results within the rubric, such as the raters all selected the same criteria within the rubric, the raters are shown to be consistent and have a “high inter-rater reliability” (Covidence, n.d., para.3), whereas a “low inter-rater reliability indicates that the raters have different interpretations or criteria for evaluating the same phenomenon” (Covidence, n.d., para.3). An example of this would be evaluating a student presentation, 3 people select good, 4 select very good, and 2 select excellent with regards to the student being prepared and able to talk about their research without reading from a powerpoint. The difference indicates that different people, even though written, still interpreted the criteria differently.

One of the fundamental issues in researching personality is something you may know intuitively:
People’s behavior changes from one situation to another. Consider your own beliefs about who you
“are” and then try to think of an example to counter it. For instance, you may consider yourself to be a
cautious person in general and love planning your finances and career, but on vacations you love the
spontaneity of backpacking. Or you may be an outspoken person, but public speeches make you
nervous. Given this, can personality ever be accurately captured or are we too unpredictable?
Chapter 4 of your course text deals with this dilemma, known as the “person–situation debate” in
personality psychology. This concerns the degree to which personality, and therefore behavior—is
fairly stable and predictable over time and the degree to which behavior depends on situational
variables. For this Discussion, your job is to select a topic from the chapter—whatever interests you
most—and develop a question to ask the class. What you find interesting can’t be right or wrong, but
your grade will be based on the degree to which you are able to produce a question that promotes
critical thinking as described in the Learning Activity. Enjoy!

One of the fundamental issues in researching personality is something you may know intuitively:
People’s behavior changes from one situation to another. Consider your own beliefs about who you
“are” and then try to think of an example to counter it. For instance, you may consider yourself to be a
cautious person in general and love planning your finances and career, but on vacations you love the
spontaneity of backpacking. Or you may be an outspoken person, but public speeches make you
nervous. Given this, can personality ever be accurately captured or are we too unpredictable?
Chapter 4 of your course text deals with this dilemma, known as the “person–situation debate” in
personality psychology. This concerns the degree to which personality, and therefore behavior—is
fairly stable and predictable over time and the degree to which behavior depends on situational
variables. For this Discussion, your job is to select a topic from the chapter—whatever interests you
most—and develop a question to ask the class. What you find interesting can’t be right or wrong, but
your grade will be based on the degree to which you are able to produce a question that promotes
critical thinking as described in the Learning Activity. Enjoy!

Review the resource Developing Discussion Questions That Promote Critical Thinking. This activity
will guide you in how to write a question for this week’s Discussion post that can generate critical
thinking in your colleagues.
Consider what question you could ask your colleagues that promotes critical thinking about some
aspect of personality in situational context.

that promotes critical thinking for your colleagues to respond to.

question in the first line of your post, and put your supporting text below that in your post.
