Question 1

Based on the results for the skewness (Q21) and kurtosis (Q20) z-scores, which of the following descriptions best reflects the distribution assumptions of the MAP data?

Accepted Answer

A)  Both the kurtosis and skewness z-scores are significant (i.e. not normally distributed). 
B)  Both the kurtosis and skewness z-scores are not significant (normally distributed). 
C)  The kurtosis z-score is significant, but the skewness z-score is not significant. 
D)  The skewness z-score is significant, but the kurtosis z-score is not significant. 
A)  Both the kurtosis and skewness z-scores are significant (i.e. not normally distributed).

Accepted Answer

A)  Normally distributed 
B)  Positively skewed 
C)  Negatively skewed 
D)  None of the descriptions represent the data expressed in the histogram
