chapter 10: Complex experimantal designs Flashcards
levels
term sometimes used to denote conditions in an experimental
factorial design
is a design with more than one indepnendet variable
IV (idependent variable) x PV design (participant variable)
allows researchers to investigate how different types of often persona attributes such as sex, age, ethnic group, personality characteristics
what is the simplest IV X PV design?
includes one manipulated idepeendent variabel that has at least tow levels and one participant variable whit at least two level
moderator variable
influneces the relationship between two other varibles
what are three possibilities while analyzing results of factorial design?
- there may or may not be a significant main effect for indpendent variable 2. there may or may not be sginificant main effect for independnet variable B 3. there may or may not e a significant interation between the indepednent variable
simple main effect
analysis that examines the mean differences at each level of the independent variable
mixed factorial desgin
the design can be comepletly indepndent groups, coupletely repeated measure
high order factorials
when we have more than two independent variables.
