   Question

   Bereken de inter-item correlatie tussen item 1 en item 2.

   

   
   
   1. TRUE: -.56
   2. FALSE: .12
   3. FALSE: -.14
   4. FALSE: .23
   
   

   Solution

   So from this table we can calculate the proportion of people who gave correct answers to both questions, this is: $10 \div 100=.1$. The covariance is then: $Sxy = Pxy - Px \times Py = =0.1 - 0.48 \times 0.50= -0.14$. The product of the standard deviations of the questions is: $√Px \times (1-Px) \times Py \times (1 - Py) = √0.48 \times 0.52 \times 0.50 \times 0.50 = 0.25$. Thus, the correlation (phi coefficient) becomes: $-0.14 \div 0.25 = -0.56$
