Experimental Research
Survey Research
Complex Research
Nonexperimental Research
Single Subject Research
100
A type of empirical study in which an independent variable is manipulated and a dependent variable is measured while extraneous variables are controlled
What is an experiment
100
A quantitative research approach that uses self-report measures and large, carefully selected samples.
What is Survey Research
100
Research that involves measuring several variables and assessing the relationships among them.
What is Complex Correlational Designs
100
Research that lacks the manipulation of an independent variable or the random assignment of participants to conditions or orders of conditions.
What is Non-experimental research
100
A type of quantitative research that involves examining in detail the behavior of each of a small number of participants.
What is Single-Subject Research (Small-N design)
200
An effect of being tested in one condition on participants’ behavior in later conditions.
What is Carryover effects: practice, fatigue, context
200
A term often used to refer to a participant in survey research.
What is Respondent
200
In a factorial design, the effect of one independent variable averaged across levels of all other independent variables.
What is Main effect
200
Research in which two or more variables are measured and the statistical relationships among them are assessed. There is no manipulated independent variable and usually very little attempt to control extraneous variables.
What is Correlational research
200
A detailed description of an individual case.
What is Case Study
300
The effect of the researcher’s expectations on participants’ behavior.
What is Experimenter expectancy effect
300
An unintended effect of the context in which a response is made.
What is Context effects
300
A table that shows the correlations among several variables.
What is Correlation Matrix
300
Research that involves the manipulation of an independent variable but lacks the random assignment of participants to conditions or orders of conditions. It is generally used in field settings to test the effectiveness of a treatment.
What is Quasi-experimental research
300
A condition in a single-subject research design in which the dependent variable is measured repeatedly in the absence of any treatment.
What is Baseline
400
Different levels of the independent variable
What is Condition
400
Rating scale that measures people’s attitude toward something by assessing their level of agreement with several statements about it
What is a Likert scale
400
A complex statistical technique that organizes several variables into clusters where there are strong correlations among the variables within a cluster but weak correlations among the variables between clusters. Each cluster is interpreted as representing a different underlying variable or factor.
What is Factor analysis
400
A between-subjects research design in which participants are not randomly assigned to conditions, usually because participants are in preexisting groups (e.g., students at different schools).
What is Nonequivalent groups design
400
A subfield of psychology that uses single-subject research and applies the principles of behavior analysis to real-world problems in areas that include education, developmental disabilities, organizational behavior, and health behavior.
What is Applied Behavior Analysis
500
A control condition in which participants are put on a waitlist to receive the treatment after the study is completed.
What is Waitlist Control
500

What is Cognitive Model of question processing
500
A statistical technique that describes the relationship between multiple independent variables and a single dependent variable in terms of an equation that shows the separate contribution of each independent variable to the dependent variable.
What is Multiple Regression
500
Research that involves formulating focused research questions, collecting small amounts of data from a large number of participants, and summarizing the data using descriptive and inferential statistics.
What is Quantitative research
500
A single-subject research design that begins with a baseline condition with no treatment, followed by the introduction of a treatment, and after that a return to the baseline condition.
What is Reversal Design or ABA design
