Chapter 4 in your Week 2 readings discusses the importance of observation in developing research questions. I would like you to describe a human behavior/interaction that you observed over the past week. Describe the people involved, the situation, and the events that took place. Then, come up with 2 or 3 research questions that you might have about this situation. If you wanted to learn more about this behavior, what observation techniques could you employ?

Now, imagine that you are developing a self-report questionnaire to measure the construct that you chose. Discuss the types of questions that you would want to ask in order to measure that construct. What would be the advantages and disadvantages of using a self-report questionnaire to measure this construct?

Researchers have to take many different things into consideration when designing an experiment, in order to ensure the validity of their study.
Pick one of the following concepts and state why it is important aspect of experimental research design. Depending on the concept you choose, it may be helpful to discuss the issues that need to be considered around this issue when designing an experiment.
Random Assignment
Testing Intact Groups
Balancing Extraneous Variables
Subject Loss
Placebo Control and Double-blind Experiments
How would you use this concept in designing an experiment of your own?

~ Week 3 DQ 2 ~ Psych 540 ~
Different experimental research methods are suited to different research questions.
Explain when you would use an independent group design.
Under what conditions should you consider a repeated measures design?
Think of a research question that lends itself to a repeated measures design.
How would you study your research question using a repeated measures design?

~ Week 4 DQ 1 ~ Psych 540 ~
Think of a research question that you can study via a single-subject (small-n design). Describe your study methodology and how you would conduct your study. Decide whether an ABAB design or multiple-baseline design would be best and say why you chose it. What could you conclude based on your results?

~ Week 4 DQ 2 ~ Psych 540 ~
In your Learning Teams you are currently designing an experiment. Using the experiment that you are currently working on as a team, I would like you to individually consider what threats to internal validity may be relevant to your topic area/research study. Define at least 2 threats to internal validity, and describe why this threat is relevant to your Learning Team experiment.

In Chapter 12, Shaughnessy et al. (2006) discuss at length three distinct, but related stages of data analysis:
1. Getting to know the data
2. Summarizing the data
3. Confirming what the data reveal.
Please describe 1 of these 3 stages and highlight the important concepts to consider within each stage. Why is the stage you chose important to the overall process of data analysis?

~ Week 5 DQ 2 ~ Psych 540 ~
Define a Type I and Type II error. Provide a unique example of a Type I and Type 2 error. Why is it that we do not use the words “proof” or “truth” when describing our research findings?
