which of the following is typically the first activity in conducting scientific studies correct
answers exploratory data collection and analysis
when a brick is dropped accidentally on an individual's toe, the impact of the brick will stimulate
pain receptors in the toe and therefore the individual screams involuntarily. the fall of the brick
leading to the pain in the toe is an example of a correct answers causal relationship
research in which a researcher makes no attempt to manipulate variables but observes them "as
is" is known as correct answers correlational research
what is the role of a third variable in correlational relationships that may have resulted from the
action of an unobserved third variable correct answers it may influence both of the observed
variables
to resolve the third-variable problem, a researcher must correct answers examine the effects of
each potential third variable to determine whether it accounts for the observed relationship
identify the goals of exploratory data collection and analysis in the context of scientific research
correct answers to identify the variables involved in explaining the behavior of interest ; to
classify behaviors in a given research area
a relationship in which one variable directly or indirectly influences another is known as a
correct answers causal relationship
research that primarily involves observing the values of two or more variables and determining
what relationships exist between them is known as correct answers correlational research
during the initial, exploratory stage of a research project, the correlational approach to research is
useful because it correct answers helps identify potential causal relationships that can provide a
rich source of hypotheses
the possibility that correlational relationships may result from the action of an unobserved
variable is called the correct answers third-variable problem
T / F : there are no techniques to evaluate and statistically control the effect of third variables
correct answers false
in experimental research, if control over two or more variables is properly used, it permits a
researcher to correct answers establish causal relationships among the variables
in which stage of a research project is the correlational research approach's ability to identify
potential causal relationships useful correct answers exploratory data collection stage
, treatments correct answers the specific conditions associated with each set of values of an
independent variable
levels correct answers the set values of an independent variable in an experimental design
the value of an independent variable in an experimental design is independent of the correct
answers participant's behavior
how are control groups different from experimental groups? correct answers it is not exposed to
experimental treatment
research that incorporates a high degree of control over the variables of the study is known as
correct answers experimental
variables that may affect the behavior that a researcher wishes to investigate but are not of
interest for the present experiment are known as correct answers extraneous
uncontrolled variability of extraneous variables in an experimental research may produce chance
differences in behavior across the levels of the independent variable, making it appear as though
the independent variable correct answers produced effects when it did not
an independent variable may be manipulated by exposing a different group of participants to
each treatment or by exposing each participant to all the treatments in sequence, depending on
the correct answers design of the experiment
extraneous variables cannot cause uncontrolled variation in a researcher's dependent variable if
these variables correct answers do not vary over the course of the experiment
a variable whose values are chosen and set by the experimenter is known as a(n) correct answers
independent variable
randomizing the effects of extraneous variables across treatments deals with the effects of
extraneous variables that correct answers cannot be held constant
experimental group correct answers the group receiving treatment
control group correct answers the group that is subject to no treatment
how is experimental research different from correlational research? correct answers it can tell
whether changes in the independent variable actually caused changes in the other
extraneous variables in experimental research correct answers experimental research has a
defining characteristic of control over the extraneous variables
