A person's predicted Z score on the criterion variable is found by multiplying that person's Z score on the predictor variable by a particular number called a:
A)coefficient of redundancy
B)regression constant
C)proportionate reduction in error
D)standardized regression coefficient

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The standardized regression coefficient, also known as beta, represents the change in standard deviation of the criterion variable for each one standard deviation change in the predictor variable. Multiplying the predictor's Z score by the beta produces the individual's predicted Z score on the criterion variable.
