Classical experimental designs involve:
d. All the above (As it involves;
Randomly selecting and assigning cases to test and control
groups.
Having pretest each group.
Administering the stimulus.
Taking the posttest measurements so that we may be in a position to compare and make inferences from the results}
Classical experimental designs involve: Control and experimental groups Independent and dependent variables Pre-tests and post-tests All...
1. Ifa study includes random assignment but not a control group, the design may still be considered to be a true experimental design. True a. b. False Using control groups help account for which of the following threats to internal validity except? 2. History a. b. Testing Maturation c. None of the above d. If the results of a study determine that an intervention did not work, though for reasons not related to the intervention, the 3. study would have...
In your own words define the following terms: Control group Experimental group Independent variable Dependent variable Then decide how you will apply each one in your research of candida glabrata. What is your control group? – only one What is/are your experimental group(s)? – at least one but could be more What is your independent variable? – only one What are your dependent variables? – at least two
Because they don’t have a control group, one group pre-post designs don’t protect against many alternative explanations for differences in the dependent variable other than changes in the independent variable. This is a problem of : Internal validity External validity Construct validity Test-retest reliability Inter-rater reliability Greg, noted cat lover, has developed the Fancy Cat Rating Inventory. As a way of determining if all his judges are judging his cats with the same standards, he would look at: Inter-rater reliability....
Compare independent variables, dependent variables, and extraneous variables. Describe two ways that researchers attempt to control extraneous variables. Support your answer with peer-reviewed articles.
Multicollinearity occurs when... Select one: independent variables are perfectly correlated dependent variables are perfectly correlated an independent variable is perfectly correlated with the dependent variable the error term is perfectly correlated with the intercept All/Any of the above. Which of the following statements is true regarding an F-Test? Select one: It is a joint hypothesis test. The null hypothesis states the all slope coefficients in the population regresion model are equal to zero. It tests whether or not one's regression...

Dependent variable Then decide how you will apply each one in your research of candida glabrata. * What is your control group? - only one ·What is are your experimental group(s)-at least one but could be more What is your independent variable? - only one What are your dependent variables? - at least two * .
Consider the post test-only design with nonequivalent control groups. Can you think of an experimental situation in which this design might be necessary? How could you potentially strengthen the experimental design?
Part I. Understanding What Makes an Experiment 1) Please identify the 3 vital components of an experiment. After identifying each component, write at least one sentence elaborating on/explaining each component (10 points) Answer – The most conventional type of experiment involves three major pairs of components: independent and dependent variables, pretesting and post testing, and experimental and control groups. An experiment examines the effects of independent variable on a dependent variable. 1- Manipulate at least one independent variable. This means...
When the effect of a control variable is examined: a. the relationship between the independent and dependent variables may be stronger. b. the relationship between the independent and dependent variables may be weaker. c. the relationship between the independent and dependent variables may be unchanged. d. all of the above
