the simplest possible kind of true experiment is ___
-a one-group design
-a two-groups design
-a one-way design
-a 2 X 2 factorial design - ANSWER a two-groups design
The major limitation of one-way experimental designs is that they only allow
researchers to look at one ______ at a time.
-independent variable
-dependent variable
-control group
-treatment condition - ANSWER independent variable
How many cells (i.e., how many unique experimental conditions) are there in a 2 x
2 x 3 completely between-subjects factorial experiment?
-6
-7
-12
-there is no way to tell without knowing more about the design - ANSWER 12
,In the Gilbert et al. (1988) study of causal attribution discussed in the text, the
researchers independently manipulated cognitive load (low vs. high) and
discussion topics (anxiety-provoking vs. relaxing). Thus, the design of this study
was ______.
-a one-way, four-groups design
-a latin square factorial
-a mixed-model design
-a 2x2 factorial design - ANSWER a 2x2 factorial design
In a 2 x 2 factorial study, what is the maximum number of main effects that you
could possibly observe?
-one
-two
-three
-four - ANSWER two
If you overheard a researcher say that "each of the three possible main effects in
my study was significant," you could conclude that the analysis the researcher had
conducted was ______.
-a one-way, three-groups anova
-a two-way anova
-a three-way anova
, -a planned comparison - ANSWER a three-way anova
Is it possible for a statistical analysis to yield three main effects in a 2 x 2 factorial
study?
-no, because there are only two independent variables
-no, because there are only two cells in such a design
-yes, but only if the test for an interaction is significant
-yes, but only if the test for an interaction is not significant - ANSWER no,
because there are only two independent variables
If you plotted the results of a factorial study using lines whose slopes represent
mean differences across different experimental conditions, the presence of a
statistical interaction would show up in the form of ______.
-lines that are separated by a statistically significant distance
-lines that generally slope upward
-lines that generally slope downward
-nonparallel lines - ANSWER nonparallel lines
