1) Research methods are the foundation of psychology as a science and involve exploring questions through various studies and experiments.
2) There are common biases and effects that can skew research, such as hindsight bias, overconfidence, and the Barnum effect. Researchers must account for these to ensure valid results.
3) Research can be experimental, involving manipulation of independent variables and control groups, or correlational, exploring relationships between variables without proving causation through surveys and observation. Proper sampling, operationalization, and statistical analysis are important.
Correlational research - Research Methodology - Manu Melwin Joymanumelwin
A correlation is simply defined as a relationship between two variables. The whole purpose of using correlations in research is to figure out which variables are connected.
Psychology research methods aim to test hypotheses scientifically. Researchers must account for biases that skew logic, such as hindsight bias, overconfidence, and the Barnum effect. There are two main research methods: experimental and correlational. Experimental research manipulates an independent variable to determine its causal effect on a dependent variable, while controlling for confounding variables through random assignment and double-blind procedures. Correlational research observes relationships between variables without manipulating them. Proper research requires following ethical guidelines to protect human and animal subjects.
This document provides an overview of research methods in psychology. It discusses key concepts like the scientific method, variables, hypotheses, experimental design, and statistical analysis.

Student Affairs Assessment Committee Training Part 2Stan Dura
The document outlines a training agenda for assessment fellows that includes a review of foundational statistical concepts such as univariate, bivariate, and multivariate models. It discusses how to use descriptive statistics, correlations, regression, and factor analysis to increase understanding of variables and their relationships through increasingly complex models. The training aims to help fellows better predict, control for, and understand variables in assessment through applying these foundational statistical techniques and concepts.
1) Psychology research aims to understand human behavior scientifically. It relies on empirical research methods to test hypotheses and establish causal relationships.
2) There are several types of descriptive research methods, including case studies, surveys, and naturalistic observation. However, these are limited because they cannot prove causation.
3) Experimental methods allow researchers to test hypotheses about cause-and-effect relationships by manipulating the independent variable and measuring its impact on the dependent variable. Control groups help rule out alternative explanations.
The document discusses Pearson's correlation coefficient (r), which measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two numeric variables. It explains that r gets stronger as the data points cluster more tightly around a straight line, and weaker if they resemble a circle. Positive correlations indicate variables increase together, while negative correlations mean one increases as the other decreases. However, correlation does not necessarily imply causation. The document cautions that categorical variables like gender cannot be correlated since r requires two numeric variables.
This document defines key concepts in research methods including variables, hypotheses, sampling, measurement, surveys, experiments, and ethical guidelines. It discusses the difference between independent and dependent variables, how to ensure reliability and validity in measures, principles of random sampling and generalizability. It also outlines different research designs like descriptive studies, correlational research, and experiments, noting their strengths and limitations.
Social Comparison or Association? Effects of Facebook Friend Profile Viewing ...Holly Slang
This study examined the effects of viewing other people's Facebook profiles on self-esteem. In experiment 1, 242 participants viewed either their own profile or a profile of someone with fewer, equal, or more friends. Viewing another's profile increased reported happiness but decreased self-esteem compared to viewing one's own profile. Those who viewed a more popular profile reported lower self-esteem and higher intentions to show off. In experiment 2, 285 participants were primed with either associative or comparative contexts before viewing profiles. Results showed gender differences in responses, with men feeling higher self-esteem viewing less popular profiles and women feeling lower self-esteem viewing equally popular profiles in associative contexts. The study found social networking
This document provides an overview of key concepts in psychology and research methods, including:
- Different approaches to psychology like psychodynamic, behavioral, cognitive.
- Common research methods like observation, surveys, experiments, and longitudinal studies.
- Key terms like independent and dependent variables, experimental and control groups.
- Ethical standards for psychological research involving informed consent and protecting participants.
- Ways of organizing data like frequency distributions, and measures of central tendency and variability like mean, median, and standard deviation.
This document summarizes an analysis of Amazon reviews from 2000-2012. It discusses the source and scope of review data, key variables of interest like review length and helpfulness. It also discusses literature on negativity bias and how negative reviews may be perceived as more diagnostic. The document explores understanding the dependent variable of review helpfulness and how it relates to factors like rating, length, and time. It proposes methods to detect expert versus novice reviewers and identify potential gender differences in reviews. It performs a sanity check of emotion analysis methods.
The document discusses correlational research, which examines relationships between two variables without manipulating them. Correlational research can establish that variables are related but cannot prove one causes the other. Key points covered include:
- Correlation coefficients measure the strength and direction of relationships between variables.
- Positive correlations indicate variables increase together, while negative correlations mean one decreases as the other increases.
- Correlational research has advantages like lower cost but cannot prove causation like experiments can.
- Common data collection methods are naturalistic observation, surveys, archival data, and secondary data. Correlation and regression analyses are frequently used to analyze correlational data and make predictions.
This document discusses various types of correlation coefficients used in statistics. It begins by describing Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficient (r) which measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two continuous variables. It then provides background on Karl Pearson who developed r. The rest of the document defines and provides formulas for other correlation coefficients including Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, point-biserial correlation, biserial correlation, tetrachoric correlation, and phi coefficient; and discusses their uses based on the scale types (nominal, ordinal, interval/ratio) of the variables.

Myers 9e ch1 - Thinking Critically with Psychological ScienceJulia Isabel Rivera
This document provides an overview of key concepts from Psychology (9th Edition) by David Myers. It discusses the need for psychological science to use empirical evidence rather than intuition alone. It describes how psychologists ask and answer questions using the scientific method, including description, correlation, and experimentation. Statistical reasoning is important for interpreting data and making inferences. Frequently asked questions about psychology are also addressed, such as whether laboratory experiments can illuminate everyday life and if psychology experiments on humans are ethical.

This document discusses using a chi-square test to analyze the predictions of experts on the outcome of a UFC fight between Adesanya and Romero. It explains that a chi-square test compares observed outcomes to expected random outcomes to determine if the observations differ significantly. The document provides an example calculation and explains that the chi-square value would need to exceed the critical value to conclude the expert predictions are significantly different than random guesses. It also discusses using a chi-square test for data that varies across two variables through a hypothetical example analyzing injuries at concerts by music genre.
This document discusses data transformations which can be used to meet parametric assumptions when data is not normally distributed. It describes common transformations like square root and log transformations that change the shape of the distribution. These transformations allow use of more powerful statistical tests by getting the data closer to a normal distribution. The document cautions that transformations may not completely remove skew and provides examples of applying square root and log transformations to positively skewed data.
This document discusses a study comparing Christmas enjoyment between people who start thinking about Christmas in October versus December. Survey data on Christmas mood from the two groups was collected and ranked. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to determine if there was a significant difference between the groups. The test statistic U was calculated to be 12, which was below the critical value, indicating those who start in December are significantly happier on Christmas Day than those who start thinking about it in October.

This document explains how to perform the Wilcoxon signed-ranks test to analyze differences between pre- and post-ratings from church members assessing whether starring in a movie would negatively impact Joe's chances of going to heaven. It describes ranking the differences between pre- and post-ratings, with tied ranks getting the average rank. The ranks of negative differences are summed and compared to the ranks of positive differences; the smaller total is T. If T is equal to or below the critical value based on sample size from a table, there is a significant difference between pre- and post-ratings. Applying this to Joe's ratings, T=5 which is below the critical value of 6, so the church members see Joe as significantly more
This document discusses using a chi-square test to analyze the predictions of experts on who will win an upcoming MMA fight between Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov. It notes that 286 experts predicted McGregor would win, which seems like the majority, but a chi-square test is needed to determine if this majority is statistically significant compared to random chance. The document explains how to calculate chi-square using the observed expert predictions compared to the expected predictions if choices were random. It concludes that for this example, the experts' predictions do not differ enough from chance to influence betting odds.
This document provides instructions for using simple formulae in Excel to calculate averages and differences between averages. It describes how to:
1. Enter an "=average()" formula in a cell to automatically calculate the average of a column of numbers.
2. Copy the average formula across multiple columns to calculate the average for each sample size.
3. Subtract one cell containing an overall average from another cell containing a sample average to determine the difference between the two averages.

2. Research questions
• Most psychological research boils down to
two simple questions
1. If I change x does something happen to
y?
2. Are x and y related?
Research questions
3. Correlation
• “Are x and y related?”
1. Do people who spend more time in the
library get better marks?
2. Are intelligence and attractiveness
related?
Correlation
4. Things to remember
• We do not manipulate anything in a
correlational design.
• There is no IV and no DV
• Correlation is usually used when the variables
are continuous, or making distinct groups is
inappropriate.
Correlation
5. Measuring relationships
• In its simplest form:
• Where does this person’s score fall on variable x? Better than
most people? Worse than most people? About average?
• Where does this person’s score fall on variable y? Better than
most people? Worse than most people? About average?
• Compare the two. Do it for lots of people.
Correlation
6. Measuring relationships
If people who are “better than most people” on variable x are
also “better than most people” on variable y
POSITIVE CORRELATION
Correlation
7. Measuring relationships
If people who are “worse than most people” on variable x are
also “worse than most people” on variable y
POSITIVE CORRELATION
Correlation
8. Measuring relationships
If people who are “better than most people” on variable x are
“worse than most people” on variable y
NEGATIVE CORRELATION
Correlation
9. Measuring relationships
If people who are “worse than most people” on variable x are
“better than most people” on variable y
NEGATIVE CORRELATION
Correlation
10. Measuring relationships
• There are two correlation tests we’ll use
• Pearson’s Product Moment
• Spearman’s Rank
Correlation
11. Measuring relationships
• Does the correlation based on z scores per
variable
• i.e. is the score of the participant
above or below the mean for all
participants?
• Says “mean” so must be parametric
Pearson’s
12. Measuring relationships
• Does the correlation based on ranks
• i.e. is the best person at one thing also
the best at another?
• Non-parametric test
Spearman’s
13. THE DIRECTION OF THE CORRELATION IS DETERMINED
BY WHETHER PEOPLE ARE DOING THE SAME THING ON
BOTH VARIABLES, NOT BY WHETHER THEIR SCORES
ARE BETTER/WORSE THAN AVERAGE
Remember
14. Measuring relationships
• We can calculate the degree of correlation
between any two variables as long as they can
be paired.
• Correlation is a only descriptive measure
• Unless we also calculate whether the
relationship is strong enough to be significant
Correlation
15. Measuring relationships
• The strength of a correlation is expressed on a
scale from + 1 through 0 and on to -1.
• This figure is called the correlation coefficient
• The closer to 1, the stronger the relationship
• Ignore the sign when you are assessing the
strength and the significance.
Correlation
