Behaviour
Stepwise tempi comparisons results
What is psychology
Inner internal, un observable, internal state.
Reverse psychology, psyching someone out. Messing others heads. Saying meaning another
Psychology: The study of behaviour. Observable.
Development
Cognitive
Motor
Affective
Different psychology types (masters degree in)
Perpetual, expire mental Clinical Developmental Social Applied (vs pure) -teaching Physiological, neuropsyc Comparative psych, goes into animals
Method of authority is not research,
Research is
Not personal experience, another learning method.
Nomathletic (group data) vs ideographic, dealing with individuals, problem is research does not deal with individuals much. LimitTion.
Scientific methods
Not only experiment. Can do observations.
Solman 4 groups design ex.
Validity
Internal: does it due what it is supposed to. Will you get same result.
and external : realit
Reliability
Refers to measurement
Independant and dependant variables
:p
Experimental considerations.
Flute ex. Gold, silver, platinum
Bias,
3 groups
Tests and measurements
Run pilot studies.
Study is never perfect
THATS WHY RESEARCH IS CUMULATIVE
What is not an experiment?q
One intervention is not an experiment
Hawthorne effect
Introduce any change, novelty effect, change for the better.
Why near control group and time frame.
Ex. Orff
Pure vs applied research
Pure, no applied, practical use.
Acoustics
Science of sound, many areas, underwater, electro, music, hearing
Always a listener
3 elements
Sound source:
- 3 types of energy needed
- -excitation, energy
- -vibrating element
- – —-material, size, shape determine tone quality
- –resonator
- —–sympathetic resonance, ex. Bridge resonant frequency
Medium: usually air, Doppler effect, coming closer lower,
Receptacle
Sound waves, waveforms,
Displacement air molecules, displacement greater = louder
Absorption, reflection, reverberant. Defraction, sound go around objects.
Interference, beating, motorboating. Constructive and destructive g
