Latest Update
Single-subject research
✓ most common is pre- and post-test or single-case study (AB) in which there is a
comparison of behavior before treatment and after treatment (baseline vs.
intervention)
Internal validity
✓ refers to the integrity of the experiment itself. It is the ability to draw a causal link
between the treatment and the dependent variable
External validity
✓ refers to the ability to generalize your study findings to the general population
(single-subject research tends to have poor external validity, due to the inability to
generalize the findings to a wider audience)
Qualitative research
✓ uses words, usually very time consuming and confined to smaller samples; mostly
open ended questions
Quantitative research
✓ based on numbers, usually larger sample; mostly open ended questions
✓ statistics that summarize and describe the data collected in a study
Inferential statistics
✓ draws conclusions concerning population based only on sample data; uses probability
distributions, correlation testing, regression, etc
Interrater reliability
✓ the degree to which different observers agree on their observations and give
consistent estimates of the same phenomenon
Test-retest reliability
✓ using the same test on two occasions to measure consistency
Parallel Forms Reliability
✓ asses the consistency among alternate versions of the same instrument; e.g. creating
2 parallel forms of a questionnaire
Internal Consistency Reliability
✓ assess the consistency of results across all items within a test
Validity
✓ the degree to which what is being measured actually is what is claimed to be
measured
