This test of novel problem solving is a measure of fluid intelligence (Doubleday‚ King‚ & Papageorgiou‚ 2002). People’s ability to solve novel problems is a stable characteristic‚ as it is largely genetically determined (Nairne‚ 2009). Test-retest is typically appropriate for measures with stable attributes‚ but this test’s novel nature makes it an inappropriate technique in regard to reliability. In effect‚ its novelty diminishes after the initial testing‚ producing difficulties due to practice

1. Assuming that the distribution is normal for weight relative to the ideal and 99% of the male participants scored between (-53.68‚64.64)‚ Where did 95% of the values for weight relative to the ideal lie? Round your answer to two decimal places. X =5.48‚ SD = 22.93 5.48 – 1.96(22.93) = AND 5.48 + 1.96(22.93) = 5.48 – 44.9428 = AND 5.48 + 44.9428 = -39.4628 AND 50.422 (-39.46‚ 50.42) 2.
