In an experimental design, the participants are chosen randomly and assigned to random groups in order to test the effects of a particular variable. A pre-experimental design examines cause and effect, but has […]
Yes, I agree with you using an experimental design you can have the causal inferences and when there is a non-equivalent group Quasi-experiment is best to use.
I really enjoyed reading “The Man Who Mistook Fis Wife for a Hat” it was very interesting. I found it very amazed how Dr.P was unaware of his condition but he still continued to move on with his daily life and for […]
Hello Jayanti,
I agree with you that it would be quite difficult to conduct a single-subject design as suggested “treatment” may actually harm Dr. P more. It is better to not interfere with his hearing since he […]
I hypothesized that there would be a significant difference in response time between easy and hard Stroop experiment. Participants who took the harder Stroop test with the loud noise, their response will be slower […]
Hello Simona,
One of my hypothesis is the same as yours. I agree with the reasoning behind your hypothesis the higher a person’s score in conscientiousness, the more likely they are to exhibit organization and p […]
One hypothesis I am testing is that the more extrovert a student is the more likely they are going to seek help and learn socially. I think this hypothesis will be proven true because the more outgoing and […]
Within-subjects is a kind of experimental design where the same group of participants is exposed to all the different treatments in an experiment. I think within-subjects provides researchers with a more powerful […]
Some suggestions:
I believe most questions in this draft are relevant for the survey.
We should define assignments like paperwork, homework, online hw or notes.
9) We should come up with a list of type of […]
Hello guys,
I definitely agree with both of you. Using freshmen, sophomore, junior, and senior will make it easier for the participants to answer the question. Nominal data is also very straight foward and it […]
After observing squirrels at central park, We came up with two hypothesis. Our first hypothesis was that since squirrels climb more in the summer than the winter and our second hypothesis was that squirrels flick […]
Hello Everyone,
I found this article from the New York Times under the science section called “Some Songbirds Have Brains Specially Designed to Find Mates for Life” by Joanna Klein and it was an interesting read. […]
Hello Everyone,

In my opinion, science is knowledge/ideas about our natural world through the scientific methods of observation, experimental investigation, testing and modification of hypothesis. I believe using the scientific […]
Hi Jayanti,
I agree with your thoughts, I also think science is based on facts and observation using the scientific methods to find the results. I strongly believe that in order for an experiment to be done […]
