CRCJ 3001 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Suggestibility, Analysis Of Variance, Central Tendency
Document Summary
Additional thoughts on sampling: critically examine binary thinking, when naming groups, avoid othering", ex. Steps of the research process: idea, form hypothesis, define variables and identify measurement strategy, participant selection strategy, ethics plan. Is there a relationship between age and suggestibility: research strategy: general approach to research based on the nature of the question you want to answer. Relationships btwn variables: change in one variable go w changes in another, categorical and/or numerical score, linear (i. e. straight line, curvilinear (i. e. curved line) 1 (2) correlational research: two variables for each person, negative linear relationship. Correlational vs. non-experimental: produce diff. data, non-experimental take average score from two groups (i. e. occupation 0 & 1) Research designs: 3 things to consider, group vs. individual, same vs. diff. people, number of variables. Research procedures: 3 things to consider, how to manipulate, regulate & measure variables, how many participants (ideally 50/condition, what will participants actually do/in what order.
