PRACTICE EXERCISES



Assume that a research team plans to initiate a cultural sensitivity training program to



help improve Lion−Zebra relations. To assess the effectiveness of the program, researchers



have developed a measure titled Lion’s Openness to the Value of Embracing Zebras



(LOVEZ). The measure consists of the following items, which are rated on a 5-point



scale of agreement (1 = strongly disagree; 5 = strongly agree):



1. Zebras should be hugged and not eaten.



2. Herd life is immoral.



3. Pride life is the only acceptable way to live.



4. Zebra culture offers an important contribution to life on the savanna.



Note that items 2 and 3 should be reversed when scoring. Table 6.1 presents the data



for eight lions collected prior to their participation in the sensitivity training. For this



data set, complete the following exercises:



1. Reverse score the appropriate items



by subtracting each score from the



appropriate constant. (Hint: You will



not be able to use 8 as the constant.)



2. Create a variable representing the sum



of the LOVEZ items. Be sure to use



the appropriate reverse-scored items.



3. Create a variable representing the mean



of the LOVEZ items.



4. Create a variable representing the



sample Z-scores of the sum of the



LOVEZ items.



5. Create a variable representing the population Z-score of the sum of the LOVEZ



items.
