PSY 550 Week 1 Discussion 1 Latest-GCU
How does the scientific method point towards truth? What is
truth, and how do you know when you have found it?
PSY 550 Week 1 Discussion 2 Latest-GCU
Contrast deductive and inductive reasoning, and explain how they
can each be used to generate a hypothesis.
PSY 550 Week 2 Discussion 1 Latest-GCU
Define reliability and validity in your own words. Briefly
describe the different types of reliability and validity, including why it is
important to conduct a study that is reliable and valid.
PSY 550 Week 2 Discussion 2 Latest-GCU
Stanley Milgram’s obedience to authority experiment is one of
the most controversial studies in psychology’s history. Considering this
example as well as others, critique such experiments from an ethical
standpoint.
PSY 550 Week 3 Discussion 1 Latest-GCU
Discuss the proper placement and usages of a table and a figure
within the manuscript.
Define the four general writing guidelines using APA style. Why
is it important to write using these guidelines when communicating your study?
Explain.
PSY 550 Week 3 Discussion 2 Latest-GCU
Discuss what stage in the publication process should potential
authors talk about publication credit. Explain.
Describe how the sections of a poster, for presentation, are
organized.
PSY 550 Week 4 Discussion 1 Latest-GCU
In your own words, define naturalistic observation. Discuss
examples of when a naturalistic observational study would be the most
appropriate design to select. What are two sources of bias during an
observation period?
PSY 550 Week 4 Discussion 2 Latest-GCU
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the following
nonexperimental research methods: (a) naturalistic observations, (b) surveys,
and (c) correlational studies. If you were asked to use one of these designs in
a study next week, which nonexperimental design would you select and why?
One of the best-known longitudinal designs is Lewis Terman’s
study of giftedness. He began tracking gifted children into adolescence and
adulthood in 1925; the study is supposed to conclude in 2020. Explain the
unique benefits of such a study, and then explain the problems caused by this
type of design.
PSY 550 Week 5 Discussion 2 Latest-GCU
Explain the circumstances when a quasi-experimental design would
be preferable to a between-subjects design, but also discuss why an explanatory
research method is superior to a predictive method.
PSY 550 Week 6 Discussion 1 Latest-GCU
Contrast the three types of factorial designs.
PSY 550 Week 6 Discussion 2 Latest-GCU
Lay out the design for two between-subjects experiments: (a) an
experiment involving an experimental group and a control group, and (b) a
factorial design with three independent variables that have 3, 2, and 2 levels,
respectively.
PSY 550 Week 7 Discussion 1 Latest-GCU
Suppose that, for at-test, your computed value fort is +3.28.
The critical value oft is +2.048. Explain what this means. Do you reject the
null hypothesis or not? Now suppose that you have 28 degrees of freedom and are
using a two-tailed (nondirectional) test. Draw a simple figure to illustrate
the relationship between the critical and the computed values oft for this
result.
PSY 550 Week 7 Discussion 2 Latest-GCU
Choose an article from the newspaper, an online source, or a
magazine, then identify the descriptive statistics included in the article.
Were the statisitcs appropriately described in the article? Explain. Discuss if
the descriptive statistics used in your source supported the arguments made in
it. Were the descriptive statistics misleading? Explain.
PSY 550 Week 8 Discussion 1 Latest-GCU
Design a 10-12 slide PowerPoint presentation (not including
title and reference slides) focusing on the Research Proposal: Project Paper
(submitted last week). Consider aforementioned elements in the Research
Proposal:
1. Introduction/Hypothesis
2. Method
3. Results
4. Discussion
5. Figures and Tables (total of two from paper)
Make sure your reference slide matches the references from your
proposal.
Include speaker notes below each content-related slide that
represent what would be said if giving the presentation in person. Expand upon
the information included in the slide and do not simply restate it. Please
ensure the speaker notes include a minimum of 50 words.
A researcher computed the F ratio for a four-group experiment.
The computed F is 4.86. The degrees of freedom are 3 for the numerator and 16
for the denominator.
1. Is the computed value of F significant
at p < .05? Explain.
2. Is it significant at p < .01?
Explain.
