ACCURATE ANSWERS GUARANTEED PASS
◉ an experiment conducted with one or a few participants to better
understand the behavior of those individuals
Answer: small-n design
◉ measurement of behavior without a treatment used as a
comparison
Answer: baseline measurement
◉ a small-n design that involves a large number of trials completed
by one or a few individuals and conducted ot describe basic
behaviors
Answer: discrete trials design
◉ a small-n design that involves baseline measurements of behavior
as compared with measures of behavior during the implementation
of a treatment
Answer: baseline design
,◉ occur when participants' experience in one condition affects their
behavior in another condition of a study
Answer: carryover effects
◉ a small-n baseline design where the baseline behavior is
measured, followed by implementation of a treatment, followed by
another baseline measure after the treatment has ended
Answer: A-B-A/ Reversal Design
◉ multi-factor experiments:
Answer:
◉ factorial design
Answer: an experiment or quasi-experiment that includes more than
one independent variable
◉ our project is what type of experiment because what
Answer: project: multi-factor experiment
because: between subjects variable and within subjects variable
◉ many experiments are what type of designs
Answer: factorial designs
, ◉ in other words, most experiments have more than one what
Answer: more than one independent variable
◉ primary advantages of factorial design
Answer: more efficient in testing the effects of multiple independent
variables in one experiment
allows for the examination of the combined effects of independent
variables on the dependent variable
◉ main effect
Answer: test of the differences between all means for each level of
an independent variable in an ANOVA
◉ main effects is what
Answer: the comparison of the mean scores for the levels of one
independent variable
◉ main effect in our project
Answer: main effect of physical activity level on words recalled
(memory) and effect of type of exercise on word recall
