  • Improving Internal Validity
    • Use standardised procedures to minimise participant + experimenter effects.
    • Single blind procedure - reduces the influences of demand characteristics
    • Double blind procedure - reduces the influences of demand characteristics and minimises experimenter effects.
    • Counterbalance the conditions (Repeated Measures)
    • Radom Allocation to conditions (Independent Groups)
    • Operationalise Variables/ behavioural categories clearly
    • Incorporate a lie scale to control for social desirability bias
    • Covert observation, reduces demand characteristics
