Empirically validated Treatment or Empirically Supported treatment CORRECT
Answer When counselors do integrate research into practice.
Correlation CORRECT Answer Correlation is simply an association. It is not the
same as causality. The correlation between people who have an umbrella open and
rain is very high, but opening your umbrella does not cause it to rain.
Three types of correlations CORRECT Answer Go from negative 1 to 0 to positive 1.
Zero means no correlation while positive 1 and negative 1 are perfect correlations. A
negative .5 is not higher than a correlation of -.5 In fact, a correlation of -.8 is
stronger than a correlation of .5.
A positive correlation: when x goes up, y goes up. For example, when you study
more, your GPA goes up.
A negative correlation: when x goes up y goes down. For example, the more you
brush your teeth, the less you will be plagued by cavities.
Quantitative research CORRECT Answer when one quanitifes or measures things. It
yields numbers.
Qualitative research CORRECT Answer When does research does not use
numberical data
Bubbles CORRECT Answer When research has flaws
What is a true experiment? CORRECT Answer Two or more groups are udes.
What is random sampling? CORRECT Answer People are picked randomly and
placed in groups using random assignment.
Systematic sampling CORRECT Answer where every nth person is chosen can also
be used howere, researchers stillprefer random sampling and random assignment
What is quasi-experimental research? CORRECT Answer When the groups are not
picked at random or the researcher cannot control the IV then it is a quasi rather
than a true experiment. quasi-experimental research does not ensure causality.
What is the independent variable CORRECT Answer The experimental group gets
the IV and it is known as the experimental variable.
what is the DV or dependent variable? CORRECT Answer the outcome data in the
study is called the DV. If we want to see if eating carrots raises one's IQ then eating
carrots is the IV while the IQ scores at the end of the study would be the DV.
Type I alpha error CORRECT Answer When a researcher rejects a null hypothesis
that is true.

Type II beta error CORRECT Answer When a research accepts null when it should
have been rejected.
What is significance levels in social science? CORRECT Answer .05 or less (.01
to .001) The signifcance level gives you the probability of a type 1 error.
N=1 CORRECT Answer a single subject design or case study and thus does not rely
on IV, DV, control group, ect. Case studies are becoming more popular.
Demand characteristics CORRECT Answer evident when subjects in a study have
cues regarding what the researcher deires or does not desire that influence their
behavior. This can counfound an experiment rendering the research inaccurate.
An obtrustive or a reactive measure CORRECT Answer if subjects know they are
being observed. Observers' presence can influence subject's behavior rather than
merely the experimental variable or treatment modality.
Unobtrusive measure CORRECT Answer When subjects are not aware that they are
being measured.
Internal vailidty CORRECT Answer when an experimental has few flaws and thus
findings are accurate. The IV caused the changes in the DV, not some other factor
(known as confounding extraneous variables or artifacts). When internal vaility is low
the researcher didn't measure what he thought he measured.
External validity CORRECT Answer it is high when the results in a study can be
generalized to other settings.
A t test CORRECT Answer a popular parametric test for comparing two means.
ANOVA or analysis of variance CORRECT Answer Also called a one-way ANOVA.
used when you have two or means to compare. The t test and the ANOVA are
parametric measures for normally distributed populations. The ANOVA provides F
values and the F test will tell you if significant differences are present.
MANOVA CORRECT Answer Used when you are investigating more than one DV>
A factorail analysis of variance CORRECT Answer When you are investigating more
than one IV/experimental variable (if you have two IVs it would be called a two-way
ANOVA three IVs a three way ANOVA.)
Chi square CORRECT Answer if the population is not necessarily normal then this
nonparametric test is used. or a Kruskal-wallace can be used.
