100
This is when you have 1 sample of participants who do all your conditions
What is within subjects?
100
These variables you hold constant in an experiment.
What is control variables?
100
Why do we need multivariate designs?
What is multitude of causes?
100
This is the definition of 'unobtrusive'?
What is no interacting with participants or letting them be aware that they're being studied?
100
When a participant tries to help you out by conforming to their assumptions of your hypothesis, this is an example of:
What is demand characteristics?
200
In this design, the data are independent and the goal is to look for group differences.
What is between subjects?
200
These variables offer an alternative explanation for your IV-DV relationship.
What is confound?
200
These are the ways you can make your design multivariate.
What is increasing the # of IVs, increasing the levels of your IV?
200
These are types of unobtrusive methods
What is observation, archival methods, content analyses?
200
If you fabricate a story about your study to tell the participant, this is called:
What is cover story?
300
This type of design requires fewer subjects but is subject to fatigue, carryover, habituation.
What is within-subjects?
300
These are common things you can control for in a study.
What are environmental forces, grouping, measurement?
300
In a 2 X 2 factorial design, how many main effects and interactions are there?
What is 2 ME and 1 interaction?
300
These are some of the benefits of unobtrusive methods.
What is high external validity, low cost, high creativity, high reliability, more ethical?
300
A crossover interaction is when your graph looks like this shape.
What is an X?
400
When one of your measures influences how participants respond on a subsequent measure, its called this type of effect.
What is carryover?
400
When neither the participant nor the experimenter know the hypothesis, this is called:
What is double blind design?
400
A quasi experimental design has everything an experiment has except this.
What is random assignment into condition?
400
These are common things you can content analyze.
What are newspapers, media, ads, TV shows, videos, speeches?
400
When you have an interaction between 3 or more IVs, this is called:
What is a higher order interaction?
500
How should you NOT carry out random assignment?
What is having the experimenter "randomly" assign a number or condition?
500
These are the things you can do to deal with confounds.
What is pretesting, controlling, or randomizing the confound?
500
These are the types of quasi-experimental design; give a definition of each.
What is nonequivalent groups, pre-post test, cross-sectional, longitudinal?
500
Archival data include these.
What is public records, sports performances, census?
500
Progressive errors are more likely in what kind of design?
What is within subjects?
