is one that is designed to determine the correlation, or degree of relationship, between two traits, behaviors, or events.
Correlational study
Experimental study
Correlational involves NO manipulation of an independent variable
True
False
In which researchers observe people's behaviour in the context in which it normally occurs
Naturalistic observation
Case study
Identify whether it is correlational or experimental:
If the researcher randomly assigned some participants to make daily to-do lists and others not to
Experimental
Correlational
Identify whether it is correlational or experimental:
If the researcher simply asked participants whether they made daily to-do lists
Experimental
Correlational
cannot determine the cause of the relationship between two factors
Correlational
Experimental
because of its control over variables, can determine cause
Correlational
Experimental
a researcher looks for associations among naturally occurring variables
Correlational studies
Experimental studies
the researcher introduces a change and then monitors its effects
Correlational studies
Experimental studies
determines degree of relationship between three or more variables
Multiple correlation
Partial correlation
Different people test each condition, so that each person is only exposed to a single user interface.
Between-subjects (or between-groups) study design
Within-subjects (or repeated-measures) study design
The same person tests all the conditions (i.e., all the user interfaces)
Between-subjects (or between-groups) study design
Within-subjects (or repeated-measures) study design
will confound the effect of an independent variable and destroy the perfect matching which is valuable in within-subjects designs
(a)
(a) is another potential drawback of using a within-subject design. Participants may become exhausted, bored, or simply uninterested after taking part in
multiple treatments or tests.
Performance on succeedings tests can also be affected by (a) . Taking part in different levels of the treatment or taking the measurement tests
several times might help the participants become more skilled.
is a decrease in response to a stimulus after repeated presentations.
Habituation
Sensitization
Adaptation
the process of becoming highly sensitive to specific events or situations (especially emotional events or situations)
Habituation
Sensitization
Adaptation
is the act of changing something or changing your behaviour to make it suitable for a new purpose or situation
Habituation
Sensitization
Adaptation
There are a few strategies for dealing with carryover effects:
Minimize and eliminate
Counterbalancing
Habituation
investigates differences in preexisting groups of subjects; group differences on some variable may be explored or different treatments given to preexisting groups may be compared.
Correlational design
Experimental design
Quasi-experimental design
The prefix quasi means
(a)
In quasi-experimental research, the independent variable is manipulated before the dependent variable is measured; it eliminates the directionality problem
True
False
explores the effects of an event (or treatment) by comparing behavior before and after the event (or treatment).
Pretest/Posttest Design
One-group posttest only design
The interrupted time-series design
the dependent variable is measured once before the treatment is implemented and once after it is implemented.
Pretest/Posttest Design
One-group posttest only design
The interrupted time-series design
a treatment is implemented (or an independent variable is manipulated) and then a dependent variable is measured once
after the treatment is implemented.
Pretest/Posttest Design
One-group posttest only design
The interrupted time-series design
A variant of the pretest-posttest design;
A time series is a set of measurements taken at intervals over a period of time.
Pretest/Posttest Design
One-group posttest only design
The interrupted time-series design
compares the effects of different treatment condition on preexisting groups of subjects.
Nonequivalent Groups Design
Posttest Nonequivalent group design
The interrupted time-series design with nonequivalent groups
involves taking a set of measurements at intervals over a period of time both before and after
an intervention of interest in two or more nonequivalent groups.
Nonequivalent Groups Design
Posttest Nonequivalent group design
The interrupted time-series design with nonequivalent groups
nonequivalent groups are administered a pretest of the dependent variable, then one
group receives a treatment while a nonequivalent control group does not receive a treatment, the dependent variable is assessed again, and then the treatment is
added to the control group, and finally the dependent variable is assessed one last time.
PRETEST-POSTTEST DESIGN WITH SWITCHING REPLICATION
SWITCHING REPLICATION WITH TREATMENT REMOVAL DESIGN
the treatment is removed from the first group when it is added to the second group.
PRETEST-POSTTEST DESIGN WITH SWITCHING REPLICATION
SWITCHING REPLICATION WITH TREATMENT REMOVAL DESIGN
investigates changes across time by measuring behavior of same group of subjects at different stages at a single points in time.
Longitudinal Design
longitudinal study
(or longitudinal survey, or panel study) is a research design that involves repeated observations of the same variables (e.g., people)
over short or long periods of time (i.e., uses longitudinal data).
Longitudinal Design
longitudinal study
investigates the changes across time by comparing groups of subjects already at different stages at a single point in time.
Cross-sectional Studies
Longitudinal study
