Instructions for Question No. 46 to 50: Read the following paragraph and answer the five questions which follow: A personality psychologist, following Hull-Spence theory, proposed that anxiety is an emotionally-based drive. One of the consequence of this proposition is the hypothesis suggesting that high anxious subjects would be conditioned faster than the low anxious subjects on an eyelid conditioning task. In the first phase of his research, the psychologist developed a suitable anxiety inventory. The psychologist prepared fifty items, each item being a seven-point self-rating scale. The draft version was administered to 350 subjects. Item analysis was carried out using itemremainder correlations, which retained forty items. For computing internal consistency, odd-even method was used. The test was divided into two equal partsone based on odd items and the other based on even items. The correlation between the two parts was 0.60. The Spearman-Brown corrected rel iabi l ity coefficient was obtained. The norms were prepared using normalized T scores. In the second phase of the study, 30 high anxious and 30 low anxious subjects were obtained using the T scores of 60 and 40 as the cut-off points for high and low anxious subjects respectively. In the eyelid conditioning experiment, the high anxious subjects required mean trials = 20 and the low anxious subjects required mean trials = 15 for conditioning. The corresponding standard deviations were also obtained. The t test revealed that the mean difference between the two groups was statistically significant.46. In the above context, which type of correlation is suitable for obtaining the item-remainder correlations?
