Flashcard 7: The validity of a screening test is defined by its _____ and specificity .

Answer: sensitivity

Extra: Validity (Accuracy) refers to the ability of a test to distinguish between those who have the disease and those who do not. It is measured by Sensitivity and Specificity. In contrast, Reliability (Precision/Repeatability) refers to the ability of a test to give consistent results when repeated under the same conditions.

Answer: A phenomenon where **low expectations** placed on individuals (by researchers or supervisors) lead to **poorer performance**.

Extra: The Golem effect is the opposite of the **Pygmalion effect** (where high expectations lead to improved performance). Both are examples of observer-expectancy bias.
