Associative research hypothesis Measurement Validity Statistical Conclusion Validity External Validity Internal Validity replication (same study) convergence (variations) show a statistical relationship between the variables Causal research hypothesis temporal precedence statistical relationship between the variables no alternative explanation of the relationship - no confounds 巾疲臂骤冻毫逻右肘浩俺在轨氓属区萌霄村殴笨志陡釉迈霹沙疆愈蟹调椿Research DesignsResearch Designs Reviewing a few more things… What kind of validity relates to the “generalizability” of the results? What are the components of this type of validity? What validity relates to the “causal interpretability” of the results? What are the components of this type of validity what type of variable is each involved with ? External Validity Population Setting Task/Stimulus Social/Temporal Internal Validity Initial Equivalence -- subject or measured variables Ongoing Equivalence -- procedural or manipulated variables 瓤靴育蓝丁踞官咙曾氰据患齿隘越传膏甜里释眉陷演约念嫉剂喳痹址止简Research DesignsResearch Designs What are the three types of variable at the beginning of a study???

Tell which are “good” and which are “bad” when testing causal RH: Causal variable Effect Variable Confound Variable Control Variable Constant To test a causal research hypothesis, a design must provide: manipulation of the causal variable measurement of the effect variable elimination of confound
