PSYC 302 FINAL EXAM NEWEST 2024 ACTUAL EXAMTEST BANK 300 QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED
ANSWERS (VERIFIED ANSWERS) |ALREADY GRADED A+
What are Quasi-experimental designs? - ANSWER: are research studies in which
participants are selected for *different* conditions from pre-existing groups and self-
selection into groups
Q designs are studies in which the IV are? - ANSWER: selected from pre-existing
values and not created through manipulation by the researcher
How are preexisting groups formed? - ANSWER: by self-selected groups
ex. smokers vs nonsmokers
What is a central issue of quasi-experimental designs? - ANSWER: research validity
What is the basic difference between true and quasi-experimental designs? -
ANSWER: random assignment
A quasi-experimental design DOES NOT permit the researcher to control what? -
ANSWER: the assignment of participants to conditions or groups
How are Quasi-experimental designs characterized? - ANSWER: *lower levels of
control* over the WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, and HOW of the study
What is a nonequivalent control groups design? - ANSWER: a research design that
has both experimental and control groups but the participants are NOT randomly
assigned to these groups
- most common type of Q design
What is the problem with nonequivalent control group designs? - ANSWER: the
problem is knowing how to compare the results between groups when they are not
equivalent to begin with
- interpretability depends on whether the pattern of results obtained can be
accounted for by possible differences between the groups or by something else in
the study
-- ceiling effects
-- floor effects
What is a ceiling effect? - ANSWER: is the level at which an independent variable no
longer has an effect on a dependent variable, or the level above which variance in an
independent variable is no longer measured or estimated
- example: 2 profs teaching the same class, students in one class constantly was in
the 98% on exams > while the other class started at 20% then moved up to 98%. One
,would not be able to deem the first prof as better because their teaching methods
may have had nothing to do with the student's high grades (could be that they're
just smart and would get those high grades no matter who the prof was)
What is a floor effect? - ANSWER: (aka, Basement Effect) is when measurements of
the dependent variable result in very low scores on the measurement scale.
How can we further enhance or improve the interpret-ability of nonequivalent
control group designs? - ANSWER: 1. matching [limitation: only controls for KNOWN
factors]
2. identifying and building extraneous variables into the design or study as
moderator variables
3. pretesting—empirically documenting the degree of nonequivalence
4. if nonequivalent, as per pretest data, then can use a number of statistical control
procedures (as
previously discussed) to covary out or control for preexisting differences
What are the examples of nonequivalent control group designs? - ANSWER:
*delayed control group designs*: design in which the testing of one group is
deferred
- i.e., the two groups are tested sequentially with an appreciable time interval
between them]
- ex. testing impact of a natural disaster or London bombings (2005)
*mixed factorial designs*: design in which there is one between-subjects variable
and one within-subjects variable
- at least one factor has to be naturally occurring or not RA (*between-subjects
variable = preexisting/naturally occurring*)
What are the designs without control groups? - ANSWER: *Interrupted Time-Series
Designs*: these designs allow the same group to be compared over time by
considering the trend of the data before and after the treatment
- graph of uninsured rate diving in 2013 pg. 5
*Multiple Time-Series Design*: A variation of interrupted time-series design, which is
really NOT a design without a control group.
- used as a control for interrupted time-series {control and experimental group are
included to rule out HISTORY as a rival hypothesis}
- example: life satisfaction and marriage
*Repeated Treatment Design*: this research design allows the same group to be
compared by measuring the participants' responses before and after repeated
treatments
- ex. administering blood pressure meds, line on graph should go up and down in a
zig-zag
,Can we make causal inferences based on quasi-experimental designs? - ANSWER: no,
because of absence of RA
- groups are nonequivalent which means there will always be 2 explanations for
differences:
1. treatment
2. nonequivalency
Which design is the best answer for which design can be experimental and
nonexperimental studies? - ANSWER: observational
What makes a Q design? - ANSWER: at least one IV is pre-existing
What is archival publication? - ANSWER: written record of scientific progress
What is invisible college? - ANSWER: informal communication network of people
having common scientific interests
What is discourse community? - ANSWER: a group of people who share common
goals, a public forum, common knowledge, and a specialized language
What is an argument? - ANSWER: a set of reasons in support of a proposition
What is a thesis? - ANSWER: the proposition that is supported by an argument
What is a secondary citation? - ANSWER: documentation of an idea from one work
that is reported in another one
What is digital object identifiers (DOI)? - ANSWER: a unique alphanumeric code that
identifies and provides a persistent link to information on the internet

review process
