what is the definition of: the extent to which the rescher acts consistently when gathering data
researcher reliability
1 of 9
what is the definition of: how constancy a method measures within its self
internal reliability
2 of 9
what is the definition of how consistent are the studies methods when repeated on different occasions
external reliability
3 of 9
techniques for checking reliability: check for inter-scorer or inter observer reliability. For inter observer reliability two observers watch the same sequence of behavior record what they have seen and compare results
researcher reliability
4 of 9
techniques for checking reliability: the split half method. socres on one half of the test are corralted with scores on the other half. If participant scores demonstrate a high positive correlation then the test is reliable
internal
5 of 9
techniques for checking reliability: test retest method. Carry out the experiment in exactly the same way with a different group of participants. If the same results are achieved then the experiment is reliable.
external reliability
6 of 9
techniques for improving reliability: ensure all researchers behave in a consistent way when gathering data- reserchers should be trained in the same procedures used in the study. With observations for research where CA is used- clearly op categorie
