Document Summary

Think of internal validity as : is the experiment internally valid. Or is there something about (internal) to the design that impacts the outcome. External validity: is the experimental valid in the real world. Similar to generalizability as i discussed it before midterm number one. Main effect: when one variable has an effect on the dependent variable. Ethno means people or folk, and graphy means describing something. Ethnography means describing a culture and understanding another way of life from the native point of view. Ethnography assumes that people make inferences - that is go beyond what is explicitly seen or said to what is meant or implied. What two types of designs does a solomon four group design combine?- combination of classical and a prexperimental design (two group post testing) John cena does not like cross-tabs, borderline cases or none of the above. Factorial designs use more than one independent variable.
