Unit 6 T

Question 1

Which multi element of design variation has a baseline, i.e., no treatment, condition included only as one of the alternating conditions throughout the experiment

Answer 1

Multi element with no baseline

Question 2

All of the following could be effective ways to enhance discriminability when using an alternating treatment design except

Use a strict sequence of alternating phases

Provide instruction before sessions

Include supplemental stimuli

Reduce the number of conditions

Answer 2

Use a strict sequence of alternating phases

Question 3

When one intentionally varies nonessential environmental parameters within an experimental phase – EG, time of day, when the experiment is run, specific therapist, rooms, etc. – with the purpose of neutralizing potential confounds, this is known as

Answer 3

Counterbalancing

Question 4

When structuring the sequence of conditions to be presented in a multi element design, the experimenter I should order those conditions based on

Answer 4

Randomization Or randomization with Restrictions

Question 5

When the conclusions of an experimental design are tenuous , which option makes the most sense for the experimenter to Consider?

Answer 5

Combine elements from two or more research designs to enhance the overall internal validity

Question 6

These are events not related to the independent variable that may affect the Dependant variable

Answer 6

Extraneous variables
