Q

Types of Experiments: Eval Bad (FIELD)

Q

Observation: Eval Good (Overt)

A
  • Ethical / informed consent
24
Q

Observation: Eval Bad (Overt)

A
  • DC / social desirability bias
25
Observation: Definition (Covert)
- pps not aware
26
Observation: Eval Good (Covert)
- No DC / SDB - higher external validity
27
Observation: Eval Bad (Covert)
- Ethical issues
28
Observation: Definition (Participant)
- researcher = present within observed group
29
Observation: Eval Good (Participant)
- rapport built = more disclosure
30
Observation: Eval Bad (Participant)
- less objective = skewed interpretation
31
Observation: Definition (Non-Participant)
- researcher = separate from group
32
Observation: Eval Good (Non-Participant)
- more objective
33
Observation: Eval Bad (Non-Participant)
- less rapport / less disclosure
34
Observational design: Definition
- choice of how and what behaviours are measured
35
Observational design: Operationalisation
- behavioural categorisation
36
Observational Design: definition (Time Sampling)
- records all relevant behaviour - at set points / intervals
37
Observational Design: Eval Good (Time Sampling)
- finds consistent behaviours
38
Observational Design: Eval Bad (Time Sampling)
- misses behaviours not in set times
39
Observational Design: Definition (Event sampling)
- records everything that happens
40
Observational Design: Eval Good (Event sampling)
- most behaviours will be recorded - as long as it's operationalised
41
Observational Design: Eval Bad (Event sampling)
- misses non operationalised behaviour
42
Observations - Assessing Reliability: issues with bias
researchers == subjective interpretation of behaviours
43
Observations - Assessing Reliability: inter-rater reliability
- 2 / more observers - conducted separately / same conditions / test correlation for similarity (0.8) = good
44
what are the types of Self-Report techniques
- questionnaires - interviews structured / unstructured
