- Research Methods
- Variables
- IV or Independent Variable is the thing you manipulate
- DV or Dependant Variable is the thing you measure
- Confounding variables can affect your results
- Methods
- Field
- semi- natural behaviour
- can't pinpoint cause and affect
- Lab
- Total control
- low ecological validity
- Natural
- no control
- natural behaviour
- Field
- Evaluation
- reliability is the trust in a procesure
- Validity is whether you measure what you claim to
- Variables
- Repeated Measures
- Research Designs
- Matched Pairs
- Can assume 'twin' will produce the same results
- hard to match pps

- Variables
- Matched Pairs
- more results for less pps
- demand characteristics
- Research Designs
- Independent Groups
- Research Designs
- Matched Pairs
- Can assume 'twin' will produce the same results
- hard to match pps
- Matched Pairs
- More pps for more results
- no demand characteristics
- Research Designs
- Hypothesis
- Directional predicts which condition will be better or worse
- Non- Directional doesn't give a prediction
