PSYB01H3 Lecture Notes - Motor Vehicle Theft, Longitudinal Study, Job Satisfaction
Document Summary
People with only landlines are different compared to those who don"t have landlines for example most young people have cellphones so they don"t have landlines. Is there something particular about the people used in this study compared to those who were not included in the study. Science is cumulative especially in psychology; research builds on previous research ( nothing really starts from scratch; unless somebody finds out something totally by accident) A hypothesis is a prediction of what you think you"ll find. Test your hypothesis for example test your hypothesis in places where people drive on the left hand side and places in which people drive on the right hand side. Can watch people in empty long hall ways and simply observe and record the behaviour or it can be set up as an experiment: findings. You"re findings can serve as further observation or insight. New research can be developed from these findings.
