A whip is an official of a political party whose task is to ensure party discipline in a legislature. the House of Representatives and Senate, have majority and minority whips. They in turn have smaller regional whips. While members of Congress often vote along party lines, the influence of the whip is weaker than in the UK system. which means that although they do keep congress in line, the influence isn't that significant.

In general terms the heart of any representative democracy is what?
kiruha [24]
I don't know if there were any options, but something that is at heart of a democracy is popular sovereignty: the belief that the power is in the hands of the people.

In a representative democracy those people are represented by some people chosen, to make the democracy easier to work.

alternatively you could say a body of laws: legislature or a constitution.

Full question

Hannah wants to see if her new technique of ping-pong playing can increase one's ping-pong performance. She asks the U.S. Olympic ping-pong team to work with her. Half of the U.S Olympic team is randomly assigned to be taught by the new style, the experimental group, and the other randomly assigned half are not, the control group. Her technique does not significantly increase the performance of the experimental group compared to the control group, perhaps because they are already so good at the sport. This could be an example of

a. the need for matching groups.

b. a ceiling effect.

c. the need for determining initial comparability.

d. an internally invalid study.* .

Ceiling effect

In Hannah case the experimental group and the control group was pretty much not significantly different because both groups were already good at the sport. Her experiment couldnt function properly because there is no accuracy to the test since both groups perform well, this is known as a ceiling effect

The term ceiling effect is a measurement limitation that occurs when the highest possible score or close to the highest score on a test or measurement instrument is reached, thereby decreasing the likelihood that the testing instrument has accurately measured the intended group.
