A researcher conducts a study looking at age and number of years experienced on job preparedness for hospital nurses (measure on a 5-point likert scale)

IV₁: ________________________________Nominal Ordinal Interval Ratio

IV_{2: ___________________________________________}Nominal Ordinal Interval Ratio

DV: ________________________________Nominal Ordinal Interval Ratio

The researcher believes that nurses that are older and have more experience will have more job preparedness. Results indicate an r = .5, p = .025 between age and job preparedness and an r=.7, p=.01 between years experience and job preparedness.

What is r² for age ____________________What is r² for years experience _______________

What type of relationship does Age and Job Preparedness have and what is the strength and interpret in your own words:

What type of relationship does Years of Experience and Job Preparedness have and what is the strength and interpret in your own words:

Based on the above questions, can we say that age (getting older) causes you to have more job preparedness? TRUE or FALSE

The r statistics indicates if the relationship is ____________________ or_____________________.

Therefore, the range for the r statistic can be from________________- 0 -__________________.

What type of relationship does a correlations indicate between two variables? (one word)______________

(hint: it is why you need a different test for a quadratic relationship)

What is the difference between Linear Regression and Multiple Regression? Which one would the researcher run on the scenario above?
