<p><br />Hi,<br /><br />I would like to understand what is the right way to pronouce scale <strong>likert</strong>? <br />It´s like the word "<strong>lik</strong>e" or its like the word "see" something like "leekert"?<br /><br />Please, anyone could help me?<br /><br />Tks,<br />Fátima<br /><br /> <br /><br />Em 27/07/2009 12:01, <strong><span>Marta García-Granero &lt; mgarciagranero@gmail.com &gt;</span></strong> escreveu:</p> <blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid #6868cc; margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br />(with a very slight frown). I'm afraid this looks a lot like student's<br />homework. Is it so? Being a teacher myself, I usually don't like it.<br /><br />Marta GG<br /><br />Amy Green wrote:<br />&gt; This may be a simple question for you, but I still confuse, please help!<br />&gt;<br />&gt; There was a survey reported in a news that classified a random sample of<br />&gt; PP members according to employment (business or government) and membership<br />&gt; (&lt;2 years = new member, 2+ years = established member). Next, I asked the<br />&gt; PP to provide me with the actual years of membership and corresponding<br />&gt; salary of each member in the sample.<br />&gt; I am interested in seeing whether years of membership has an effect on<br />&gt; salaries.<br />&gt; a. What should be my first approach to answer this?<br />&gt; b. What is the more detailed approach to det ermine this?<br />&gt; c. How would I determine the correlation between these two random<br />&gt; variables?<br />&gt; d. How would I determine the fraction of the variance in the salaries<br />&gt; which is explainable by its relationship with the years of membership?<br />&gt; e. I was asked to determine if the mean salary in government is<br />&gt; 40,000 per year but I have an outlier in the data.
