- Variables
- Independent Variables: The variable being manipulated.
- Dependent Variable: The variable being measured.
- Extraneous Variables - Any variables other than the IV that might effect the results
- Particpant Variables: Particpant memory, personality, age, intelligence.
- Situtional variables: Time of day, heat, demmand characthertistics.
- Controlling for 2 different types of Extraneous Variables
- Controlling Particpant Variables
- Large sample and randomly seleted to gain representative samples.
- Use repeated measures design or matched pairs deisgn instead of independent measures design
- Randomly allocate particpants to condition.
- Controlling Enviroment variables
- Standardise: Keep everything the same for partipants
- Standardised Procedure
- Standardised Method
- Controlling for order effects
- Controlling for Demmand Charactheristics:
- Deception - lying about the aim
- Distractor questions/ tasks/actions
- Sting blid: The particpants is unaqare of which condition they're in.
- Standardise: Keep everything the same for partipants
- Controlling Particpant Variables
- Confoudning Variables: Any variable other than the IV that had affected the results
