SECTION C – SOLUTIONS BASED ON THE QUESTION INSTRUCTIONS

Question 2: Scoring a Personality Inventory
Instruction Recap: You are given a table with 15 statements, each rated on a 4-point Likert scale:
SA = Strongly Agree = 4
A = Agree = 3
D = Disagree = 2
SD = Strongly Disagree = 1
You're to score the items, group them into three traits (Extraversion, Conscientiousness, Agreeableness),
and compute the totals for each trait.
General Steps for Solving (what you’d do in the exam):
1. Go through each of the 15 items and assign the appropriate numerical score using the Likert scale.
2. Group the items into the three personality traits based on what they measure:
Extraversion (e.g., enjoys being with people)
Conscientiousness (e.g., works hard, follows rules)
Agreeableness (e.g., forgives easily, avoids conflict)
3. For any reverse-worded items, subtract the score from 5 to reverse it.
4. Add up the total scores for each of the three traits.
5. Write out the final personality profile (e.g., Extraversion = 17, etc.)
Example of what to write as your answer:
> Extraversion items: 1, 4, 7 (reverse), 10, 13 → total = 18
Conscientiousness items: 3, 5, 8, 11, 14 → total = 15
Agreeableness items: 2, 6, 9, 12, 15 → total = 17
Personality Profile:
Extraversion = 18
Conscientiousness = 15
Agreeableness = 17
(This is what your exam script would contain — just adjust the numbers based on actual scores if they’re
provided.)
---
Question 3: Finding Raw Score and Percentile Rank
Instruction Recap: You're given a student’s raw score on a test and a frequency distribution of class
scores. You are to:
1. Identify the raw score.
2. Calculate the percentile rank using the distribution.
General Steps to Follow:
1. Use the class score table to count how many students scored lower than the raw score.
2. Use the percentile rank formula:
\text{Percentile Rank} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of students who scored lower}}{\text{Total number of
students}} \right) \times 100
3. Write your final answer clearly.
Example of an Answer (Structure):
> Raw score = 15
Students who scored below = 2
Total students = 20
\text{Percentile Rank} = \left( \frac{2}{20} \right) \times 100 = 10%
Answer: Raw score = 15, Percentile Rank = 10%

SECTION B – STRUCTURED ESSAY QUESTIONS (Answer any TWO)
---
1. Describe the key factors in constructing a reliable psychological test. Discuss the importance of
reliability in the context of educational psychology.
Answer:
Key factors include:
Clear definition of constructs: Ensure the test measures what it’s intended to measure.
Standardized administration: Uniform procedures for all test takers.
Consistent scoring: Objective scoring systems that reduce subjectivity.
Pilot testing: Identify problematic items before finalizing the test.
Test-retest consistency: Ensures stability over time.
Internal consistency: Each item must measure the same construct.
Importance in educational psychology:
Reliable tests help educators make fair, consistent decisions about student placement, instructional
planning, and evaluating progress. Unreliable tests can lead to misdiagnosis, unfair evaluations, and
ineffective interventions.
---
2. Explain the process of validity in test construction. What steps should be taken to ensure that a test
has construct validity, and why is it important in psychological assessments?
Answer:
Validity refers to how well a test measures what it purports to measure.
Steps to ensure construct validity:
Theoretical grounding: Base items on well-established theories.
Expert reviews: Ensure test items reflect the construct comprehensively.
Correlation studies: Compare test results with existing, validated measures.
Factor analysis: Identify underlying dimensions of the test.
Longitudinal studies: Assess stability and predictive power over time.
Importance:
Construct validity ensures that test interpretations are meaningful and that interventions based on test
results are appropriate, especially when diagnosing mental health issues or educational needs.
---
3. Discuss the implications of cultural bias in psychological testing. How can psychologists ensure that
tests are culture-fair and produce valid results for diverse populations?
Answer:
Implications:
Cultural bias can lead to inaccurate diagnoses and unfair assessments.
It can marginalize certain groups and reinforce stereotypes.
Test results may reflect language or cultural familiarity rather than ability.
Strategies for ensuring fairness:
Use of culture-fair or non-verbal tests (e.g., Raven’s Matrices).
Translation and back-translation of test items.
Norming with diverse populations.
Cultural sensitivity training for test administrators.
Qualitative supplements to capture contextual data.
By addressing bias, psychologists ensure assessments reflect true ability and support ethical, equitable
practices.
