Adv Research Design
Exam #4
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| factorial design | multiple IVs |
| reasons to use a quasi-experimental design | can't manipulate the IV, can’t randomly assign, when ethical to do so (ex. look at hurricane after it happened, not manipulated) |
| reasons to use an single-case design | rare, tracking an individual’s changes, therapy, ethical (may modify behavior), in-depth analysis |
| Chi-square-goodness of fit | nonparametric, random sample, sample to population, variance is heterogenous |
| Chi-square- independence | 2 or more groups/levels |
| Friedman’s | repeated measures ANOVA (w/in) |
| Kruskal-Wallis | randomized ANOVA (btw) |
| Wilcoxon rank sum | independent/btw, ordinal data |
| matched pairs signed ranks | dependent/within, ordinal data |
| Wilcoxon rank sum assumptions | ordinal data (or converted), not normal distribution, independent |
| matched sets | matched on characteristics (more than 2) |
| natural sets | triplets, quadruplets |
| repeated measures | pre, mid, post assessment; all w/in |
| threats to internal validity in a pretest-posttest | regression to the mean, mortality, history, instrumentation, ceiling/floor effects |
| Wilcoxon obtained value | < or = CV- obtained value has to be greater than p= .05 for significance (p> .05) |
| Chi square independent-sample | must be random |
| Chi square | nominal |
| Wilcoxon | ordinal/converted ordinal |
| Chi square goodness of fit assumptions | 5 cases, random selection, non-parametric |
| 2 group design | btw group |
| multiple group design | btw, add placebo, level, or control group |
| parametric tests | t-tests, ANOVAs |
| non parametric | Wilcoxon rank sum, Friedman, Kruskal Wallis, Mann Whitney, chi squares |
| small n/single case design | are quasi and within |
| multiple baselines | behaviors, situation, & participants |
| ABAB design is... | more ethical- end on treatment phase than baseline, a reversal design |
| types of small n designs | rehearsal, time series, multiple baselines |
| problems with single group designs | increased confounds, no equivalent control group, no comparison group |
| single case design | 1 participant |
| small n design | a few participants |
| cross-sectional | snapshot of multiple cohorts, 1 time |
| longitudinal | 1 cohort |
| regression to the mean | go back to the average (mean) |
| types of quasi-experimental designs | Single-group posttest only, Single-group pretest-posttest, Single-group time-series, Multiple-group time-series, Non-equivalent control group posttest only, Non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest |
| confound | uncontrolled, extraneous variable that messes with control |
| internal validity | IV affects the DV |
| external validity | generalizability |
| single group time series design | repeatedly measured across time |
| nonequivalent control group pretest/posttest | assessed twice (pre-posttest) |
| time series design | multiple measures across time |
| manipulated variable ex. | therapy |
| nonmanipulated variable ex. | gender, disorder, age, classification |
| subject variable | a lot of nonmanipulated variables are subject variables |
| nonmanipulated IV | can't randomly assign |
| factorial notation | # = IVs, the # itself = levels |
| main effects | effect of IV (look at IVs) |
| interactions | interaction btw different variables & levels |
| graph of interaction | slopes will be different |
