Measurement Errors• Virtually all measurements have errors
• Reliability and Measurement Error are not the same, rather Reliability infers an acceptable degree of Measurement Error.

Introduction to Inferential Statistics
• Before our next lecture you will be conducting some inferential statistics in your lab classes
• All you need to be aware of at this stage is that the ‘P-value’ represents the probability that total variance is not due to primary variance
![Page 15: Measurement Errors Introduction to Study Skills & Research Methods (HL10040) Dr James Betts.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070306/5515e050550346cf6f8b4cbc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Coursework (60% overall grade)• Your coursework will require you to address
2 of the following research scenarios:
– 1) Effect of Plyometric Training on Vertical Jump
– 2) Effect of Ice Baths on Recovery of Strength
– 3) Effect of Diet on the Incidence of Muscle Injury
– 4) Effect of Footwear on Sprint Acceleration
– 5) Effect of PMR on Competitive Anxiety.

Coursework Outline• For each of the 2 scenarios you will need to:
– Perform a literature search in order to provide a
comprehensive introduction to the research area
– Identify the variables of interest and evaluate the
research design which was adopted
– Formulate and state appropriate hypotheses
– Summarise descriptive statistics in an appropriate
and well presented manner…

Coursework Outline• Cont’d…
– Select the most appropriate statistical test with justification for your decision
– Transfer the output of your inferential statistics into your word document
– Interpret your results and discuss the validity and reliability of the study
– Draw a meaningful conclusion (state whether hypotheses are accepted or rejected).
