Study Notes
Experimental Design
- A control group is a group that does not receive the experimental procedure or test sample, acting as a baseline for comparison.
- In an experiment, the independent variable is the factor changed or controlled by the researcher, the dependent variable is the factor measured to determine the effect of the independent variable, and the extraneous variable is the factor that affects the dependent variable but is not controlled by the researcher.
Hypothesis
- A hypothesis is a claim involving the relationship between things that can be tested to verify or dismiss through experimentation.
- A hypothesis is a specific type of research question that is not a question but a statement or assertion about relationships between two or more concepts.
Generalizability
- Generalizability refers to the ability to apply research conclusions based on a sample group to the population.
- It involves making a generalization from a limited study to a broader population.
Research Approaches
- Inductive research aims to develop a theory by gaining data, while deductive research aims to test an existing theory against data gained through research.
APA Referencing
- In APA style, paraphrasing can be done using a signal phrase or a parenthetical note.
- A signal phrase includes the author's name and an appropriate verb in the sentence, while a parenthetical note provides the author's surname, year of publication, and page number in parentheses.
- Direct quotes in APA style require double quotation marks and the page number, signified by the letter "p."
- When citing multiple authors in APA style, include all author names for one or two authors, and only the first author's name plus "et al." for three or more authors.
- Use an ampersand (&) between names in parenthetical citations, and the word "and" in narrative citations.
- A reference list in APA style is written on a separate page, listed in alphabetical order, and uses the heading "Reference List" or "References."
