Probability
This hypothesis states that there is a difference or effect in the population
What is the alternative hypothesis?
Test used to compare the means of three or more independent groups
What is one-way Analysis of Variance/ANOVA?
This type of ANOVA is used when there’s one dependent variable and two or more independent variables (factors)
What is factorial ANOVA?
Test used to predict a single outcome variable from two or more predictors
What is Multiple Regression?
The first step of Thematic analysis
What is Familiarisation of the data?
The probability of obtaining the observed result (or a more extreme result) if the null hypothesis is true
What is the P-value?
Test used to compare means across conditions - where the same participants complete all conditions
What is Repeated-measures ANOVA?
Design in which there are two independent variables, each with two levels (e.g., gender × study condition), and each participant is in only one combination of conditions
What is 2x2 Between-Groups design?
The value of Y when X is 0 or where the regression line
crosses the y-axis
What is the intercept?
This research paradigm is concerned with making sense of how people understand or experience the world
What is experiential research?
This is the difference between a sample statistic and the true population parameter, which limits how well we can generalise our results
What is sampling error?
Non-parametric equivalent of one-way Analysis of Variance
What is the Kruskal-Wallis test?
Design with one between-subjects independent variable (e.g., alcohol vs. control) and one within-subjects independent variable (e.g., time of day: morning, afternoon, night)
What is 2 x 3 Mixed Within-Between Design?
The unit increase in Y for every 1 unit increase in X
What is the slope?
Term used for the point at which no new themes are identified in your interviews
What is saturation?
The threshold for statistical significance, representing the probability of making a Type I error
What is the alpha value?
Statistical test used to determine if a dataset comes from a normally distributed population
What is the Shapiro-wilk test of normality?
Method used to control Type I error by dividing the alpha level by the number of comparisons
What is Bonferroni correction?
This statistic reflects the amount of variance accounted for in the outcome by the predictors
What is the R-squared value?
This theory states that language is a situated social practice; it actively constructs realities
What is constructionist theory of language?
The probability distribution of a statistic that is the result of taking many random samples of the same size from a population
What is the sampling distribution?
Statistical test used to determine if the variances of the differences between all combinations of within-subject conditions are equal (i.e., the assumption of sphericity)
What is Mauchly’s test?
This assumption reflects whether there is a linear relationship between the predictor and
outcome variables
What is linearity?
Language is considered constitutive and functional within this field of study.
What is discursive psychology?
