Research Methods 1 Types Experiments

Question 1

Lab goods and bads

Answer 1

Good :
.Control over extraneous variables =cause and effect
.repeatable /same results.cus high control,use standardised procedures
.bad :
Have Demand characteristics so likely confound results.(ppl fake behaviour)
.low ecological validity

Question 2

Feild goods and bads

Answer 2

Good
.high ecological validity-but can’t control environment setting
.low demand characteristics
Bad
.low control over extraneous
.difficult to replicate
.unethical-no consent

Question 3

Natural goods and bads

Answer 3

Good
.high ecogical validity
.low demand characteristics
.ethical method for socially sensitive research-possible to study variable that are unable in a lab
Bad
.low control over extraneous variables
.difficult to repeat

Question 4

Quasi goods and bads

Answer 4

Goods
.control over extraneous
.repeatable
Bad
.less extraneous control then lab-dosnt manipulate IV
.could reduce ecological validity depending on task

Question 5

Lab meaning

Answer 5

Controlled environment so high control over IV ,extraneous

Question 6

Feild meaning

Answer 6

Real world setting,manipulates IV deliberately. Participants usually passers by.

Question 7

Natural meaning

Answer 7

IV ,DV nature occurring.researcher measures DV.

Question 8

Quasi meaning

Answer 8

Researcher manipulates task.that participants required to complete.aim is to see if the diff conditions in the study IV causes differences in performance on the task DV.pre determined by pre existing characteristic out of researchers control.eg.task chosen by researcher but groups already exist like male and female.
