Q

AO3: evaluation

A

G->(weakness) low generalisability
–>small opportunity sample of 16- 17 year old King Edwards vi college.
–>unrepresentative of the whole population as we do not know if males present more anti social behaviour than females passed that age.

R->(strength) high reliability
–>research to support through Bandura as he found males were more likely to display anti social behaviour than females especially in the presence of a same sex model.
–>therefore, results are more credible as it shows males are more likely to display more anti social behaviour than males and this can be due to the influence of others

A-> ?????????

V->(strength) high ecological validity
–>conducted within a natural environment within the library of King Edwards Vi college.
–>therefore, findings can be generalised as it was conducted within a normal setting therefore we can say that males are likely to display more anti social behaviour than females.

E->(weakness) unethical
–>the college students were a part of a covert design therefore they were not aware of the observation in the library.
–>therefore, informed consent could not be obtained and they had no right to withdraw therefore breaching ethical guidelines therefore the experiment cannot be replicated
