In ____, reseracher uses preexisting groups and the IV cant be altered. -
answer quasi experiemetnal
you cant for sure state that IV casued DV.
One popular type: Ex post facto study: After the fact. IV administered
befroe study began.
____Validity refers to wheater the DVs were truly influenced by teh IVs or
whether other factors had an impact. - answer Internal
,Threats: maturation of subjects, mortality (subjects withdrawing) ,
instruments used, statistical regression (notion taht super high or low
scores would move toward the mean if measure is utlized again).
__validity refers to whether the experimental results can be genralized to
larger populations - answer external
statistical procedures that use the important or underlying factros in an
atempt to summarize a lot of variables - answer factor analysis

traditionally: social science says .05 or lower (like .01 or .001). .05 would
indicate that there is a 5% chance the differneces between control and
experimental group is due to chance. you will get same results 95 out of
100 times.
Error: occurs when reseracher rejects null when it is true - answer type I
alpha. Probablitity of committing equals level of significance or alpha
FYI increasing sample size reduces type i and II errors.
Error: occurs when accept null when it is false - answer type II beta
1 - beta=power (Power is ability to reject correctly a false null
hypothesis. )
