This document provides an overview of the research process in psychology. It discusses key aspects researchers must consider, including developing a plan with a clear aim and target population, establishing an ethical procedure for collecting and analyzing data, and interpreting findings. Random sampling is emphasized as the best method to obtain a representative sample. Validity, reliability, and evaluating findings are also covered. The document uses examples like the Pygmalion effect study to illustrate these concepts.
This document outlines the hierarchy of populations in research studies, including:
1. The study population or sample, which is the population that participated in the study.
2. The actual population that met eligibility criteria and could have participated.
3. The target population, which is broader than the actual population and is what inferences are aimed to be made about.
4. One or more external populations, which are broader than the target population and may or may not overlap with it, and are what the investigator wants to generalize findings to.
Feminist research deals with theories about oppression, power relations, and inequality. It challenges traditional assumptions in research and knowledge creation. Feminist methodology combines both traditional and contemporary research methods and can utilize both qualitative and quantitative data. Contemporary feminist research in India is characterized by conscious partiality where researchers identify with respondents, action research that seeks social change, and valuing diversity and differences among women. The goal of feminist research is empowerment, overcoming inequity, and representing marginalized voices.
This document defines and discusses case studies. It provides that a case study examines a specific social unit in depth using qualitative and quantitative methods. The key steps in a case study are determining the research question, selecting cases and collecting data in the field, analyzing the data, and preparing a report. There are different types of case studies including illustrative, exploratory, and cumulative case studies. Case studies are best used when researchers want to answer how or why questions about issues where contextual conditions are important.

The goals of qualitative research are to understand why things are the way they are and answer questions beginning with why and how. It aims to provide a holistic perspective through naturalistic, subjective data collection like interviews and observation rather than controlled experiments.
SRA Poster: Qualitative Interviews about Communication TrainingJohn C. Besley
This document summarizes interviews conducted with 24 science and risk communication trainers. The interviews explored how trainers approach setting communication goals and objectives in their training. The interviews found that trainers believe scientists want help achieving both personal career goals and societal goals of ensuring science informs decision-making. However, the training rarely addresses what intermediate objectives could help scientists achieve their overall goals. The document suggests trainers could better incorporate strategic goal-setting into communication training.
This document outlines the competency of demonstrating an understanding of social science methodologies in order to explain the consequences of human behavior. It lists several Clemson social science disciplines including anthropology, economics, geography, history, and political science. It explains that courses in these disciplines use approaches like historical records, surveys, and experiments to understand behavior, representing social science methodologies. Finally, it provides examples of how course activities and artifacts could enable students to discuss human behavior, research techniques, and draw conclusions from empirical data in keeping with social science approaches.
The document discusses two types of validity: internal validity and external validity. Internal validity refers to the extent to which a study's findings reflect the true causal effect in the target population. External validity refers to the extent to which findings from a study population can be generalized to an external population beyond the target population. A key point is that internal validity is a prerequisite for external validity - a study must first be internally valid before its findings can be generalized to other populations.
This document outlines different types of sampling methods used in quantitative and qualitative research. It discusses probabilistic sampling techniques like simple random sampling, systematic sampling, stratified sampling, and cluster sampling that are used in quantitative studies to select representative samples from a population. It also covers non-probabilistic sampling methods like convenience sampling and snowball sampling. For qualitative research, it describes purposeful sampling techniques such as maximal variation sampling, typical case sampling, theory-based sampling, and opportunistic sampling that target information-rich cases for in-depth study.

The intended learning outcomes are to compare citation styles, understand the purpose of citations, evaluate citation accuracy, and identify causes and effects of plagiarism.
Participant observation is a qualitative research method where a researcher immerses themselves in a group to observe and participate in their daily lives over an extended period of time. This allows the researcher to gain an intimate understanding of the group's practices, behaviors, and culture. There are various levels of participation a researcher can take, from non-participatory observation to fully embracing the group's customs. While this provides rich insights, it also carries risks like bias and losing objectivity. Participant observation works best when little is known about a topic or to study phenomena in natural settings.
Research traditions in qualitative methods class session 4tjcarter
This document provides an overview of several qualitative research traditions including case study, grounded theory, phenomenology, heuristic inquiry, ethnography, and life history. It describes the key characteristics of each approach, such as case studies exploring "how" and "why" questions within a bounded context through storytelling. Grounded theory involves continual questioning and simultaneous data collection and analysis to generate theory. Phenomenology aims to understand the meaning of lived experiences. Ethnography studies culture through extensive field notes from natural settings. Narratives and life histories involve stories from individuals and groups about lived experiences.
Feminist research challenges assumptions in mainstream research by focusing on women's experiences and perspectives. It originated in response to research that centered men's experiences. There are two main approaches: feminist empiricism adds women to traditional research, while feminist standpoint theory starts from women's views to achieve stronger objectivity. Feminist research is reflexive, with researchers reflecting critically on their own backgrounds and potential biases.

This document provides an overview of descriptive research. Descriptive research involves collecting data to describe characteristics or behaviors of individuals, groups, or situations. It aims to present a factual account of the characteristics of whatever is being studied, rather than testing hypotheses. Common methods include surveys, interviews, and observation. The document then discusses the nature, aims, design, methods, errors, and classifications of descriptive research. It provides examples of descriptive research studies in the areas of norms, education, psychology, and social surveys. Descriptive research seeks to describe "what is" rather than establish causal relationships.
An Introduction to Understanding Life Span Human Developmentwindstar2002
This document provides an overview of human development and lifespan development. It discusses the goals of studying development as describing, explaining, predicting, and modifying development over time. Key topics covered include the major domains of development (physical, cognitive, psychosocial), influences on development like heredity and environment, approaches like Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory, research methods used, and ethical considerations in developmental research.
Qualitative research focuses on data that cannot be expressed numerically and aims to develop new concepts through description and interpretation. There are several types of qualitative research including ethnography, grounded theory, and interpretative phenomenological analysis. Data collection methods involve interviews, focus groups, observation, and reviewing documents. Qualitative analysis involves interpreting responses to uncover implied meanings and identify important themes through constant comparison of data. Constant comparison involves open coding, progressive focusing, and summarizing interpretations. Keeping organized records is also important for qualitative analysis.
Survey research involves systematically collecting quantitative data using questionnaires or interviews to describe populations and test hypotheses. This document discusses survey goals, types of information collected, key characteristics, and considerations for designing valid and reliable surveys. It describes common survey types like cross-sectional and longitudinal, sampling methods, administration approaches, and data analysis techniques.

This document provides an overview of epidemiological study designs and research ethics. It begins by acknowledging the sources used to prepare the presentation. The objective is to understand epidemiological study design types, including observational and interventional studies. Observational studies are further broken down into descriptive and analytical designs, as well as ecological studies. Descriptive designs aim to simply describe health-related events, while analytical designs seek to establish relationships between exposures and outcomes. Ecological studies analyze data at the group level rather than the individual level. The document discusses various study design considerations and limitations. It emphasizes the importance of choosing appropriate study designs and addressing potential biases and confounding. Finally, it recommends further readings on epidemiological study design topics.
Doing sociological research involves applying the sociological perspective, being curious and asking questions objectively. There are different types of truths and ways of knowing, including scientific knowledge based on empirical evidence. Sociological research methods include positivist, interpretive, and critical sociology. Key aspects of research are concepts, variables, measurement, validity, reliability, and the relationship between variables. The scientific method involves collecting data through observation and experimentation. Common data collection methods are participant observation, interviews, surveys, existing sources, and experiments. It is important for sociological research to be objective and consider how factors like gender can influence results. Ethical standards help ensure research protects participants.
Homogenization of culture refers to the loss of diversity between cultural groups as local cultures are transformed or absorbed by a dominant outside culture, such as through the immense growth of the internet and increase in globalization. This leads to bigger markets but also the disadvantages of certain local cultures being lost.
Civic consciousness involves being aware of one's community and how to help as an individual. In the Philippines, civic consciousness is prioritized through incorporating it into the National Service Training Program (NSTP). The NSTP aims to enhance civic consciousness and defense preparedness in youth by developing ethics of service and patriotism through its three program components, which are designed to enhance the youth's active contribution to general welfare.
This document discusses different methods of program evaluation: the before-and-after method compares outcomes before and after a program, the comparison method compares one group to another or the norm, and the how-do-we-stand method identifies desirable outcomes and criteria to rate a program.

The document discusses several theories of intelligence:
1. Thurstone's theory proposed intelligence is made up of seven primary mental abilities rather than one general factor.
2. Cattell distinguished between fluid intelligence (adaptive learning abilities) and crystallized intelligence (acquired knowledge and skills).
3. Guilford's theory identified 180 separate mental abilities composed of different types of content, operations, and products. He developed tests to measure these abilities.
4. Sternberg's triarchic theory proposed intelligence has three parts - contextual (sociocultural), experiential (insight and new ideas), and componential (information processing with performance and metacomponents).
The document discusses several influential theories and definitions of intelligence from prominent psychologists throughout history.

This document outlines Albert Bandura's social cognitive theory. Some key points include:
- Bandura viewed people as agents who can intentionally influence their own experiences through forethought, self-reactiveness, and self-reflectiveness.
- His famous Bobo doll experiment demonstrated that children can learn aggression through observation and imitation of models.
- Observational learning occurs through attention, retention, reproduction, and motivation processes. Factors like characteristics of the model, attributes of the observer, and consequences influence modeling.
- Bandura explored how aggression, inhumane behavior, moral disengagement, and self-efficacy impact social learning and behavior. He showed how social influences shape humans through observational learning.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
