February 21, 2012 at 3:58 pm. I think the premise of research is being missed here. What is research for? The point of research is to expand knowledge; discover novel ideas and to develop theories( http:/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Research. So what can be done? One way would be to throw more money at it and pay participan...

Does research only benefit some parts of society? | hb90

https://hb90.wordpress.com/2012/02/15/does-research-only-benefit-some-parts-of-society

Just another WordPress.com site. Homework for my T.A. :). Homework for my T.A. →. Does research only benefit some parts of society? February 15, 2012. Last week, I asked the question of whether statistics should only be used to answer some research questions not others. I used the example of the ‘The bell curve’ and how the controversial book tried to divide American society up by intelligence, and whether it actually benefited society. For example, Milgram’s famous obedience study, a key study that has ...

The stats of infidelity | suuzblog

https://suuzblog.wordpress.com/2012/03/23/the-stats-of-fidelity

A blog, by suz :). The stats of infidelity. This blog is a lot longer than my usual ones, but I thought this topic deserved it…. Do men cheat more than women? Is it in fact the other way around, and women cheat more than men do? Or are both men and women equally as unfaithful? So I will look at this stereotype; why it may exist and whether research has found it to be true or not, while also taking into consideration factors which may affect a person’s faithfulness. Added to this, another study found that...

Ethical Guidlines: One rule too many? | mballen91

https://mballen91.wordpress.com/2011/10/14/ethical-guidlines-one-rule-too-many

Just another WordPress.com site. Ethical Guidlines: One rule too many? I don’t mean that we ignore the safety of our participants but can you ever anticipate/eliminate all risks? How can we tell what people subjectively refer to as undignified? Also with the way that these ‘rules’ can be argued, surely the professional is not held responsible for the concequences if their judgement has lead them to believe that they have completley followed the rules.

Making the Case for More Field Experiments | columsblog

https://columsblog.wordpress.com/2012/03/25/making-the-case-for-more-field-experiments

Just another WordPress.com site. Making the Case for More Field Experiments. An example of a field experiment is Rosenhan’s study Being sane in an insane place. Another problem with Lab experiments is that they do not accurately portray real life situations. For example if you were to take part in a study on weapon focus, you would most likely watch a video of a mugging and be asked questions about what you had seen ( Pickel 1999. Feel free to disagree with me in the comments section. Newer Entry →.

Just another WordPress.com site. Skip to primary content. October 14, 2011. The basic principals can be summarised in five main points. 1) Research with humans should be based on the results from laboratory and animal experimentation… aka, you must have reason to believe that the research will be have a successful and significant outcome, as well as being safe. 5) Risks should not exceed benefits… aka, attempting to understand why people bite their nails should not involve electrocuting participants.

Just another WordPress.com site. Repeated verses Independent Measures. OK, so the purpose of my blog this week is to find out what you all think would be the ideal way to conduct my 3rd year project. For my project I am going to be evaluating the Government’s 5 step approach to parenting. The problem we are facing at the moment is how do we go about conducting the study; do we do a repeated measures test or an independent measures test? The advantages of conducting a repeated measures test are:. Less var...
