Research Methods
- The primary goal of a case study in psychology is to gain in-depth information about a specific individual, group, or phenomenon.
Experimental Design
- The purpose of a double-blind experiment in psychology is to prevent bias by ensuring that both the researchers and participants are unaware of the group assignments or conditions.
Correlation Analysis
- A correlation coefficient of 0.7 indicates a strong positive relationship between two variables.
Research Study Types
- The primary difference between an experiment and a correlational study is that an experiment involves manipulating an independent variable to observe its effect on a dependent variable, whereas a correlational study examines the relationship between variables without manipulating them.
