FINAL: Chapter 12 Factorial Design

Question 1

What is a one-way design?

Answer 1

An experiment that contains only one IV

Question 2

What is the simplest experimental design?

Answer 2

One IV w/two levels

Question 3

What is a factorial design?

Answer 3

Experiremnt containing two or more IV

Question 4

What is a two-way design?

Answer 4

2 Independent variables

Question 5

What is a traditional nomenclature?

Answer 5

Each number represents the # of levels in one of the IV’s (EX: 2 x 3 design = IV(1) 2 levels, IV(2) 3 levels)

Question 6

What are the three types of factorial design?

Answer 6

Between subjects, within subjects, mixed design

Question 7

What are main effects?

Answer 7

The overall effect of each IV alone on the DV. Two IV = Two main effects. Three IV = Three main effects

Question 8

What is an interaction?

Answer 8

You have a signigicant interaction if the effect of one IV depends on the levels of the other IV

Question 9

What are the two types of interactions?

Answer 9

Crossover Interaction: Lines cross
Spreading interation: Lines don’t cross, but they will eventually
