Question

Correlating the results of two versions of the NATABOC exam is an example of what type of reliability?

a.test-retest

b. equivalence

c. objectivity

d.split-halves

Muscle endurance is assessed by performing the maximum number of repetitions of a weightlifting exercise with a submaximal weight load.

true or false

Answer 1

Answer 1. Equivalence Relaibility

Explanation:

By definition of Equivalence Reliability, it measures the correlation of scores between different versions of the same instrument. It thus answers the following - Do results correlate well with those of a similar measure on the same population?

Answer 2. True.

The Field Methods to test muscle endurance involves either lifting external weights or repitive movements of the body.

Thus, muscular endurance is assessed either by performing the maximum number of repetitions of a weightlifting exercise with a submaximal weight load or the maximum number of repetitions of a body movement exercise. This is the 1RM Measure ( 1 Repetition Maximum)
