Psychology at Bangor: Is it good science to keep adding participants / manipulating data until you find an effect?

http://jcpsychology.blogspot.com/2012/03/is-it-good-science-to-keep-adding.html

Sunday, 11 March 2012. Is it good science to keep adding participants / manipulating data until you find an effect? The question here it would seem should focus more on the manipulation of data rather than that of adding participants to create change in results. (Or at least that's what I think). Here is normally where a reference would go. There are no good ones). To continue, manipulation of data seems to give off a sense of laziness on the researchers part. Understandably there may be problems, re...

Psychology at Bangor: Gender Bias In Diagnosis Of Depression

http://jcpsychology.blogspot.com/2011/12/gender-bias-in-diagnosis-of-depression.html

Friday, 2 December 2011. Gender Bias In Diagnosis Of Depression. Following a discussion Steve Hosier had in a lecture a few days ago about depression and how women are more likely to be diagnosed with depression, it got me thinking about coping mechanisms each gender has and how that could affect amounts of diagnosis. Yeahh writing this Ive just realised it is more informative than topical, but hey its pretty interesting). Http:/ www.upliftprogram.com/facts depression men.html. 4 December 2011 at 12:57.

Friday, 7 October 2011. Reliabilty of Case Studies. 9 October 2011 at 11:18. 10 October 2011 at 08:22. 10 October 2011 at 11:19.

It was observed that the winkte gender was more creative and took on the role of looking after the children, it was considered lucky to be a winkte. April 29, 2012. Semester 2.

Psychology at Bangor: What I think about Quasi experiments...

http://jcpsychology.blogspot.com/2011/10/what-i-think-about-quasi-experiments.html

Friday, 21 October 2011. What I think about Quasi experiments. A Quasi experiment is an experimental method that uses lab type controls but makes use of ready existing Independat Variables. Quasi methods are incredibly useful in the fact that they can aviod ethical concerns, say if the variable that you wanted to measure could otherwise harm the participants.

EcPsychology: How Can We Be Sure?

http://ecpsychology.blogspot.com/2011/10/how-can-we-be-sure.html

Friday, October 21, 2011. How Can We Be Sure? Being a psychologist partially requires being a researcher, which means that we always have to come up with new ideas. The interesting thing about studying psychology is that the new questions never end, since we study the behaviour of individuals and there are many factors that change it. Mental disorders can influence the validity of the results of a study. What if some of the participants are compulsive liars? Motives can also be triggering. For instan...
