Within vs Between Subject Designs |
|
Definition
Within: single group of individuals participate in each cond, receive every level of IV.
Between: find sample, assign to groups, test each group for each condition of IV(many part. needed)
2 IV Types
1. Independent (btwn subject)
2. Repeated (within subject) |

Term
|
Definition
Manip. 2 IV's in 1 experiment (2x2)
Level: # of manipulations of that factor
(+)= Allows you to look for main effects(1 var alone DV) and interactions (effect of 2 var together)
(-)= larger sample size needed |

Term
Graphing & Interpreting Interactions |
|
Definition
Parallel Lines: atleast 1 main effect, no interaction
V-Shape: Atleast 1 main effect, plus interaction
X-Shape: Only interaction, no main effects |

Between Subject Design (pros and cons) |
|
Definition
Pros: people are less fatigued, no practice effects, less instrumentation and testing effects
Cons: indiv. differences between groups may be confounds. Requires many part. in each group. |
