Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
It is imperative to compute effect sizes as a means of illustrating magnitude of importance of results. Confidence intervals (CIs) communicate information about how precise (or imprecise) the study results are. Statistical significance indicates that the results are unlikely to be due to chance. Correlation coefficients pertain to the intensity and direction of relationships between variables.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Confidence intervals (CIs) communicate information about how precise (or imprecise) the study results are. Statistical significance indicates that the results are unlikely to be due to chance. Effect size pertains to sample size and power analysis, whereas correlation coefficients pertain to the intensity and direction of relationships between variables.
