Fоr the questiоn, yоu will be provided with аn overview of а study. Pleаse read the description and answer the questions below. If you don’t think there are any problems tied to the description, just respond with “good” or “there are no problems.” If you do see a problem, please identify the problem(s) (e.g., what is wrong) and how the issue could be fixed. Your evaluation should take the perspective of whether what is presented would be good enough to be accepted in a journal. That is, have they used too weak of a test? Have they not reported a test of validity or reliability? Have they implemented the test incorrectly? Does the test actually show that the measure is valid and/or reliable (based on the results reported)? These areas should be the focus of your critiques. A recent study published in the Journal of Sports Psychology attempted to create a measure of sports team fanaticism. In the paper, the authors describe their concept as the extent to which people are filled with excessive, single-minded zeal toward their favorite sports team. They proposed to measure their concept with the following items: I watch my favorite sports team any opportunity I get. I get annoyed when events in my life prevent me from watching my favorite sports team. I am sure to wear sports attire (e.g., hat, t-shirt, etc.) when my favorite team is playing. I am always happy to see my favorite team lose. I am committed to helping my favorite team anyway I can. Each item used the following 7-point scale: Strongly disagree to Strongly agree The researchers also took several steps to determine the validity and reliability of their measure. The authors reported that they had administered their items to a group of fans as they exited a recent set of sporting events in the Boston metro area. They found their measure did a good job of separating out individuals who frequently attended sporting events for various teams in Boston from those who did not frequently attend these events. They also found their measure separated out people who did and didn’t own team apparel. They also found that the concept was associated with frequency of watching their favorite sports team on TV, with feeling connected to the sports team, and disliking their favorite team’s biggest rival. They also reported a Cronbach’s Alpha score of .89. They also reported the results of a test-retest assessment, in which they had the same group of students in a class at Boston University fill out the index during the first week of the semester and the last week of the semester. The results of the test-retest revealed a correlation of .76. Please provide an assessment of the author’s operationalization of the concept. Please provide an assessment of the author’s reliability check for their index. Please provide an assessment of the author’s validity check for their index.
