A researcher wants to determine if facets of emotional judgment predict counselor self-efficacy among professional counselors. Three scales of the Emotional Judgment Inventory (EJI) are used to measure one's perceived skill in understanding and using emotions effectively. Higher scores on the EJI scales reflect better emotional judgment. The three EJI scales used are: (1) Identifying Own Emotions (idslf), (2) Expressing Emotions Adaptively (expres) and (3) Managing Others' Emotions (mngothr). The total score of the Counseling Self-Estimate Inventory (COSE) was used to measure counselor self-efficacy (cosetot). Higher scores on the COSE reflect more perceived counseling self-efficacy. The study sample was comprised of 118 counselors. The researcher used a sequential MRA entering the predictor variables in the following order: (First) Identifying Own Emotions (idslf), (Second) Expressing Emotions Adaptively (expres) and (Third) Managing Others' Emotions (mngothr). Please use an alpha of = .05 for all analyses. For the a priori power analysis using F tests>Linear multiple regression: Fixed model, R2 increase, the previous effect size Partial R2 = .10 (use in the Determine window and calculate and transfer to main window), = .05, power = .80, Number of tested predictors = 3, Total number of predictors = 3.

1. The R Square Change in Model 2 only relates to the Expressing Emotions Adaptively variable that was added to the model. Was the R Square Change significant for the addition of Expressing Emotions Adaptively?

answer choices

No, the R Square Change = .062 was not significant, F_change (1,115) = 9.453, p = .003, so p > .05. The added variance from Expressing Emotions Adaptively did not significantly contribute to the model.

Yes, the R Square Change = .062 was significant, F_change (1,115) = 9.453, p = .003 so p < .05. The added variance from Expressing Emotions Adaptively did significantly contribute to the model.

2. In Model 3, the third variable of Managing Others' Emotions is added to Expressing Emotions Adaptively and Identifying Own Emotions predicting counseling self-efficacy. What was the multiple correlation (R), coefficient of determination (R²)?

answer choices

R = .502, R² = .252, so approximately 25.2% of the variance in counseling self-efficacy can be attributed to Managing Others' Emotions, Identifying Own Emotions and Expressing Emotions Adaptively.
