Hello students, here the question is about a study.
00:06
One of the students conducted a content analysis from instagram post.
00:10
So in the first question, there is a rating scale.
00:12
She developed a rating scale of benevolence, belief in the kind and safe world from 1 to 7, where 1 means very low and 7 means very strong.
00:20
We have to calculate that this variable is measured on which scale.
00:24
So the correct answer is interval because the scale has equal intervals between the value and there is a meaningful zero point absence of benevolence is represented by the zero not by the lack of the category.
00:48
However, it is important to note that this conclusion is dependent on the assumption that the differences between each category are equal and meaningful.
00:54
If the student had not established that the differences between each rating were equally spaced or meaningful, the variable might be considered ordinal.
01:03
But here due to the scale has equal intervals between the values and there is a meaningful zero point.
01:10
It is an example of the interval scale.
01:12
So the correct answer is interval.
01:16
Next is about the several students in this course choose to do a content analysis of films to analyze gender differences in the depiction of romantic ideals...
