Question

School-aged children are regularly asked to fundraise for their school. Typically, they are required to sell a minimum amount. This mandate results in most students selling that minimum, with some exceptional children selling far larger quantities. The minimum sales constraint that likely causes positively skewed data is consistent with a __________ effect.

Answer 1

The answer is floor effect.

Explanation:

The minimum sales constraint that likely causes positively skewed data is consistent with a floor effect.

In the field of research, a floor effect happens when measurements of the dependent variable result in very low scores on the measurement scale.

Note : A dependent variable is that variable, which is exposed to the independent variable and then measured.
