Anonymity
 is that one is not identifiable to persons other than those one communicates with. His name or identification is not discoed to anyone else.
Like if doctor is sharing information with someone but he will not disclose the name of his/her patient. He can share his medical report  but same time keeping his name anonymous.
   
Question No: 37    ( Marks: 5 )
 What kind of problems can be faced by the researcher while checking reliability with test-retest method? How a researcher can overcome it?
There are two kind of  problems with measures of test-retest reliability which is common to all longitudinal studies.
The first measure may sensitize the respondents to their participation in a research
Project.
 Influence the results of the second measure.
Further if the time between the measures is long it may leads to  attitude change.
 Thus it is possible for a reliable measure to indicate or medium correlation between the first and the second.
This  low correlation may be due to an attitude change over time rather than to lack of
Reliability
