✓ ~~> research for the sake of addressing real world problems (how can

we decrease prejudice?)




True or false: Basic research leads to applied research

✓ ~~> true




Correlational design

✓ ~~> MEASURE (record) two (or +) variables to see if they co-

occur/move together. If you know x, you can predict y.




positive correlation

✓ ~~> x increases, y increases




negative correlation

✓ ~~> x increases, y decreases




strong correlation

✓ ~~> (correlational design-

magnitude) easier to predict y from x (Sat score and math class grade)




perfect correlation

✓ ~~> (correlational design- magnitude) x and y are the same ( SAT and

ACT score)r=1




weak correlation

✓ ~~> (correlational design- magnitude) x predicts y but not strongly.

harder to predict y from x (SAT scores and college art class grade) r

closer to 0




No correlation

✓ ~~> (correlational design- magnitude) x and y do not "move"

together; knowing x does not help you predict y (SAT scores and what

car you drive) r=0




Correlations

✓ ~~> DOESN'T tell us why x causes y. Only tells us that two variables

move together. Good starting point for figuring out problems.




Experimental design (Experimental)

✓ ~~> one or more manipulated variables and one or more measured

variables. Allows us to conclude whether x causes y.
