THE VALIDITY OF THE TEM-4 AS A MEASURE OF VOCABULARY KNOWLEDGE AND READING COMPREHENSION

Order Description

USIN software SPSS

SEE THE 2 FILES I HAVE ATACHED THEM IMPORTANT
Research questions:
1) Does the reading comprehension part of the TEM4 really measure reading comprehension? If so, scores on this part of the test should correlate significantly with scores on the YARC reading comprehension test.

2) Does the vocabulary component of the TEM4 (cloze and grammar+vocab) really measure vocabulary? If so, scores on this part of the TEM4 should correlate significantly with the VST or the VKS.
3) Study the correlations between the VKS, the VST and different components of the YARC test, and explain why the correlations found.

Is TEM4 valid test but it does not come with evident that what I should do , what the EVIDENT of the validity of TEM4?

Instruction

Section 1-Introduction
(what is this essay about? Why is this important? What will you cover? At the end of the introduction I expect to see sentences such as: Section 2 will deal with….. In section 3 the hypotheses for the study will be presented… etc.)

section 2) Literature review:
an overview of important findings in the field. If you cover validity and reliability, you need to explain what these notions mean. In the literature part you also sketch the local context of your field (what do we know about language testing in China/tests for university students, what TEM-4 test and its components, what YARC test, the VKS test and VST test and what people say about them. the correlation between vocabulary and reading and ….and summarize key findings in testing in these fields).[ not to be only descriptive but also be critical e.g compare between the two or more point of views of writers and its finding limitation.

section 3) Your research questions, hypotheses. What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternative hypothesis?

section 4) Methods:
describe the methods used (participants (“how were the informants sampled?”), instruments (“the tests”), procedure (“how were the data collected?”).. Try to provide as much information as you know.{ sample data is provided Joy}I HAVE PROVIDED THE SAMPLE DATA { ATTATCHED}

section 5) Results.
Give tables and boxplots, describe the content of these in the text (Figure 1/Table 1 shows that…). You can also present figures which show whether your data are normally distributed, and what you decided to do.{ being natural not be biased by any theory}

section 6)
Discussion: what do the findings mean? What are your conclusions with respect to your hypotheses? Can you reject the null hypothesis practice the hypothesis and evident of the hypothesis , point of overviews and taking analytic data {e.g comparison …} ?
section 7) Conclusion:
Summarise your key findings, discuss limitations, explain what researchers should address in future research what should do to try to solve the problem.
8) References (the recent version)
follow the APA conventions guidelines and recent one.
If you write direct quotation it should write direct quotation not more than 40 words and write the number of that page , which I quoted it from. It should be practices analysis references[ references result in this section is more important }

9) Appendix{ not counted in the word length)
(print out your calculations in SPSS[boxplots] to check the result and what have been done create my own table and boxplots not copy pase from SPSS and adding every thing we done in SPSS[ THE THINGS WE DO NOT NEED IT IN THE DISCTION SECTION WE CAN ADD THEM TO THE APPENDIX], add your tests).and include any useful information you come across but you discuss some of them which are relevant to the research in the essay but the others not or another aspects or diagrams . So you can add them to the appendix with mention to the more information in the appendix inside the essay so the reader if want more details he can go to the appendix .e.g { it can be seen in the appendix 1,….}..{ not a count in the word count}
