The three predictor (or independent) variables are operationally defined as scores on the Indentifying Own Emotions, Expressing Emotions Adaptively, and Managing Others’ Emotions scales of the Emotional Judgment Inventory (EJI) How do you interpret the scores on the scales? 2. The dependent (outcome) variable counselor self-efficacy is operationally defined by scores on the Counseling Self-Estimate Inventory (COSE). How do you interpret the scores on the scale? 3. What was the Actual Power and the Total sample size needed from the a priori power analysis using G*Power? 4. Does the a priori power analysis suggest that we should proceed with the study? 5. What was the highest Mahalanobis value and what was the Χ2 critical value for 3 df at the .001 probability level using the Chi Square Distribution at DanielSoper.com? 6. Is there a problem with multivariate outliers? 7. Identify the bivariate correlations (in Correlations Table) of the 3 predictors correlations to the dependent variable. 8. Do the bivariate correlations to the dependent variable suggest that there may be a worthwhile multiple regression model? 9. Identify the bivariate correlations (in Correlations Table) between the predictor variables. 10. Do the bivariate correlations between the predictor variables suggest that there may be redundancy among the predictor variables? 11. Identify the tolerance values to check for multicollinearity in the Coefficients table of Model 3. 12. Do we have a problem with multicollinearity that shows that the predictors are measuring the same thing? 13. Looking at the histogram of standardized residuals was the assumption of normality met? 14. Looking at the P-P plot of standardized residuals was the assumption of normality met? 15. When looking at a scatter plot of residuals, if you can visualize a band surrounding the scatter plot of residuals approximating the form of a rectangle, then the underlying assumptions of normality, linearity, and homoscedasticity are likely all met. Specifically, looking at the scatter plot of residuals for linearity, what was the finding? 16. What was the finding relative to homoscedasticity assessing the residual scatter plot? 17. Review the results of the sequential MRA and start with the Model Summary table using α = .05. The omnibus null hypothesis is stated as: YCounSelfEfff (Xidslf, Xexpres, Xmngothr) = 0, which is saying that the predictors will not significantly predict the dependent variable of counseling self-efficacy. In Model 1, only assess whether Identifying Own Emotions predicts counseling selfefficacy. What was the multiple correlation (R), coefficient of determination (R2)? 18. In Model 1, the R Square Change only relates to the addition of the one variable Indentifying Own Emotions so R2 will be the same as R Square Change. Was the R Square Change significant? 19. In Model 2, the second variable of Expressing Emotions Adaptively is added to Identifying Own Emotions predicting counseling self-efficacy. What was the multiple correlation (R), coefficient of determination (R2)? 20. The R Square Change in Model 2 only relates to the Expressing Emotions Adaptively variable that was added to the model.

multiple correlation (R), coefficient of determination (R2)? 22. The R Square Change in Model 3 only relates to the Managing Others’ Emotions variable that was added to the model. Was the R Square Change significant for the addition of Managing Others’ Emotions? 23. The ANOVA table shows that the Model 1, Model 2, and Model 3 are all significant. Is it accurate to say that the reason that Model 3 is significant is because of the predictors of Identifying Own Emotions and Expressing Emotions Adaptively are significant with little to no help from Managing Others’ Emotions? 24. The Coefficients table provides information about testing the significance of each predictor variable by itself to counseling self-efficacy using t-tests. Was Identifying Own Emotions significant in predicting counseling self-efficacy as indicated in Model 3? 25. Was Expressing Emotions Adaptively significant in predicting counseling self- efficacy as indicated in Model 3?

Theory allows for more successful and effective health interventions. 22. Health policies serve as a proximal influence on health behavior. 23. A behavior that is more frequent and repetitive is more difficult to adhere to over time. 24. Which health behavior is frequent and repetitive, therefore potentially harder to change/adhere to? 25. Measures of intent include: 26. The two independent constructs that precede intent in the theory of reasoned action are subjective norms and cognitive dissonance. 27. IMB in IMB Model stands for: 28. Formation of intent is the last step in the theory before the actual behavior. 29. Inhibiting factors are always internal to the person. 30. According to the Theory of Planned Behavior, the perception of control is based on an intersection of factors internal to the person making the decision and their cognitive evaluation of those internal factors.


31. Facilitating and inhibiting factors in the TPB are based on only on individual perceptions. 32. External factors that serve to facilitate a given behavior or those that act to inhibit a given behavior are based on personal perceptions. 33. Neither the Theory of Reasoned Action nor the Theory of Planned Behavior is qualified as ValueExpectancy models. 34. Which statement best describes theory of reasoned action? 35. An important focus of the Theory of Reasoned Action is generating intent. 36. The Theory of Reasoned Action includes a focus on perceptions about: 37. Unlike the health belief model, the theory of reasoned action, and the theory of planned behavior, the information-motivation-behavioral skills model is a relatively old modeling tool in the behavioral sciences. 38. Value-expectancy models represent a class of theories that, at their core, assume people will change a behavior it they anticipate the personal benefits derived from the outcome will outweigh any costs incurred through enacting the behavior. Choose the theories or models that are not an example of value-expectancy models. 39. A positive net gain in the mental math equation can be achieved by: 40. Even though the Health Belief Model is a relatively simple tool that can easily be applied to health promotion practice, it is often applied incorrectly. What are the problems that HBM have? 41. Perceived threat is moderated by a host of modifying factors such as age, race, SES, and knowledge pertaining to disease in question. 42. What are the two constructs that have an independent influence on health behavior? 43. Protection motivation theory describes coping appraisal is essentially people deciding if the costs for engaging in a health behavior outweigh the benefits. 44. The basic premise of both PMT and EPPM is when individuals are faced with a scary stimuli 45. The Health Belief Model posits that cues to action may be events, symptoms experienced physically by the person, or reminders provided by a credible source. 46. Response efficacy and self-efficacy are both part of the threat appraisal process. 47. When combining the constructs “perceived severity” and “perceived susceptibility,” you get the level of perceived threat imposed. 48. Health Belief Model is logical, well-articulated, and simple model that the primary construct is indeed predicated on the basis that behavior change will occur only when sufficient benefits remain after subtracting the costs incurred by the performing the behavior. There are two constructs that have independent influences on health behavior. What are those two? 49. The health belief model was initially used to identify determinants of being screened for HIV. 50. Reactance and denial are two types of danger control responses.
