13. In a normal distribution curve, a T-score of 70 is _. 

A. Two SDs below the mean

B. Two SDs above the mean

C. One SD below the mean

D. One SD above the mean

T-scores are set to 50 to represent the mean. a score of 10 represents 1 Standard Deviation. If you have a t-score of 60, you have one SD above the mean and if you have a t-score of 40, you have one SD below the mean.

So, the answer is B - Two SDs above the mean. 70 (t-score) = 50 (mean) + 10 (SD) * 2.

14. Which type of test measure higher order thinking skills?

A. Enumeration

B. Matching

C. Completion

D. Analogy

We all know that enumeration, matching and completion are usually used for lower order thinking skills. It usually requires only memorization or recall.

15. Standard deviation is to variability as _ is to central tendency.

A. Mode

B. Quartile

C. Range

D. Pearson R

We have to remember that there are three measures of central tendency. First, we have the mean. Also, we have the median and the mode. Obviously, the answer is A - Mode.

Now, let's talk about why B, C and D aren't the answers. When we mention Pearson R, we talk about correlation. When we mention Quartile, we refer the values that divide a list of numbers into quarters. Finally, when we mention range, we refer simply to the difference between the lowest and the highest value.
