- EVALUATION OF CLASSIC EVIDENCE
- BIOLOGICAL BRAIN SCAN
- methodology and procedures
- casual conclusions can not be justified as IV was not deliberately manipulated.
- PET scans can now see how it affects brain during CPT.
- the murderers were not typical of all violent individuals, findings dont show all criminals have such brain dysfunction
- alternate evidence
- raine has other research with Yang, showed MAOA genetic could be a cause as it has high levels of dopamine
- ethical issues
- the reason why they may have a murdered could be due to a social aspect.
- schizophrenics and others with learning disabilities etc can struggle to consent
- methodology and procedures
- PSYCHODYNAMIC THIEVES
- method and procedures
- IV was not manipulated, no casual conclusions can be drawn
- the record has strong qualitative data, it is only one view of a person
- all 88 children were hurt, may not generalise sample to all kids
- kids dont usually have mental illness
- alternate evidence
- lack of emotional care before 6 can be recoverable
- adopted later = lack of physical + cog and emotional
- ethical issues
- participants weren't given confidentiality.
- children should be informed
- kids should know experiment
- privacy.
- method and procedures
- BEHAVIOURIST BABY
- methodology and procedures
- was in a lab so could be controlled, it had a control condition
- building blocks
- was filmed
- researcher had intention to do more. conclusions cant be drawn from one baby.
- alternate evidence
- mower explained it doesnt disappear, two process model was important.
- first do classical, then do operant.
- learning can not explain all phobia, biological preparedness exists from the past as an explanation
- ethical issues
- they were aware they distressed Albert and it is unethically acceptable.
- could've stayed with him for life.
- they removed his thumb to show true affects of fear, more psychological harm
- could've lasted and had long term consequences
- methodology and procedures
- COGNITIVE EYE WITNESS
- methodology and procedures
- can show casual relationship, it was experiment so IV was manipulated
- ecological validity matters
- were US college students, other groups can be affect by misleading info and age difference
- alternate evidence
- college students asked about advertising material for Disney, info had misinformation, bugs was not Disney
- Loftus.
- ethical issues
- they did not gain valid consent as if they were aware of aims it would have affected behaviour.
- deception
- participants weren't shown a real accident, this study avoided that issue,
- psychological harm.
- methodology and procedures
- POSITIVE WHO IS HAPPY
- methodology and procedures
- data with Self report is subjective as of social desirability
- when friends are asked about their friends happiness, they dont lie
- we cant assume that any particular factor as the findings are correlational with intervening variables
- it can be the other way around e.g happiness makes better marriage, than marriage making happiness.
- very westernised
- hint to other cultures, collective could be just as happy.
- alternate evidence
- one gene can be linked to happiness called 5-HIT genetic
- 50% due to genetics 10% due to circumstance
- 40% is self control
- ethical issues
- very little risk of harm as nothing is manipulated, need debrief.
- to make sure it is a good source must follow ethical guidelines
- it can make us feel more + or - about a group of people or culture.
- sample may not have fair representation; ethnocentrism
- methodology and procedures
- BIOLOGICAL BRAIN SCAN
