multiple times
Between-Subjects Design correct answers each subject receives only
one level of IV; compare
groups of subjects
Characteristics of

mimicked procedures, 2)
burden of proof shifted, 3)
argument by exclusion, 4)
shunned by mainstream, &
5) no rules of evidence
Confirmation Bias correct answers look for evidence that goes
, with own ideas and dismiss
things that do not fit
Dependent Variable (DV) correct answers whatever the experimenter
measures/records; value
depends upon the level of
the IV; usually plotted along
the y-axis of a graph
Independent Variable (IV) correct answers whatever the experimenter
manipulates; must have at
least 2 levels; suspected
cause of some
psychological phenomenon
Main Effect correct answers differences between levels
of an IV averaged over all
levels of every other IV
Debriefing correct answers experimenter explains
purpose of study to
participants after study,
reduces discomfort, and
answers questions
Empiricism correct answers source of knowledge;
knowledge from
experience/observation
Informed Consent correct answers participants should be given
sufficient information about
a study to make voluntary
decision to be in study;
know the risks involved
Interaction correct answers effect of one IV depends
upon the level of another IV

Subjects Design correct answers all subjects get baseline
condition, then treatment
condition started with first

continue with baseline until
all exposed to treatment
