One reason a valid experiment may produce null results is a. the range of levels in the independent variable was insufficient to show an effect. b. the dependent variable reflects a broad range of performance. c. that the experiment is conducted in an environment that is too difficult. d. that reactivity occurs in the participants (e.g., they adopt the role of “good behavior”). 7.
One individual named Wilhelm Wundt (1832-1920) (Epstein, 1981). With the increase of research into the linkage behind the body, Wilhelm Wundt became the first to develop the study of psychology into a formal discipline. Wundt was using scientific research methods to explore reaction times. Wundt opened the first experimental laboratory in psychology at the University of Leipzig, Germany (Goodwin, 2008). Wundt was linked to the theatrical perception known as structuralism along with his student Edward Bradford Titchener (1867-1927), which consist of describing the structures that compose the human mind.
Examine the premises; do they contain fallacies? If so, where is the faulty reasoning? if you are unsure of the name of the fallacy, explain why you think the example you cite is a fallacy – that is, what is the faulty reasoning, or the unsound argument, or the misleading argument or statement? 4. Is this an argument from pathos, ethos or logos?
How might a good research design be diagrammed? What kinds of threats to the validity of research designs can you identify? How can such threats be controlled or eliminated? Theories once proposed,need to be tested against the real world via a variety of research strategies, including experimentation and case studies. Research design have to consist of the logic and structure inherent in any particular approach to data gathering.
With that being said, all experimental designs that are gauged as being truthful, must have a hypothesis statement at its core structure. And this should be the main focus of the experiment. Hypotheses can be obtained by a number of ways where certain observations lead to the formation of a theory. In a nutshell, hypotheses are research problems that are usually the result coming from a question or questions that are asked about a particular subject or topic. Furthermore, hypotheses must be testable by means of using if statements to make a point.

Unfamiliar is not the same as abnormal, distinction between these two is vital to understanding psychopathology and those affected by mental illness. As abnormal psychology evolves and progresses in treatments, therapies, and research the central theme of the six core concepts continues to guide researcher. These six concepts define and provide understanding of abnormality. The concepts also illustrate the range between normal and abnormal behavior of individuals experiencing personality disorders. Another concept is studying cultural and historical relativism in defining and classifying abnormality in relation to environment.
PSYCH 100 – EXAM 1 * What are the goals of psychology? Description, explanation, prediction, control. * Understand the distinction between nativism/empiricism (nature/nurture). Nativism – we are born with out personalities and everything is ingrained in our biology. Empiricism – everything is learned and needs to be adapted to * Know the difference between structuralism/functionalism.
In causal comparative research, the researcher has limited control over the study and extreme caution must be applied in interpreting results. This is because the groups are already formed at the beginning of the study. An apparent cause-effect relation may not be as it appears. The alleged cause of an observed effect may in fact be the effect itself, or, a third variable may have caused both the apparent cause and the effect. In other words, an observed relationship between variable A and B can mean that A causes B, B causes B, or a third variable C causes both A and
