An interesting concept for a POPPS prepared speech. Should have Clive Wearing been tested on if he couldn’t remember giving consent? | I. R. Jarvis

The magical world of Research Methods and Statistics. An interesting concept for a POPPS prepared speech. Should have Clive Wearing been tested on if he couldn’t remember giving consent? This raises quite an unpleasant feeling and questions the motion of giving fully informed consent. Surely it would have taken more than 30 seconds to explain the full aims and procedures of any study? And isn’t the point of giving consent to protect the participant? 8211; http:/ www.telegraph.co.uk/health/331...However i...

Covert Participant Observation | psucfb

https://psucfb.wordpress.com/2012/02/19/covert-participant-observation

Just another WordPress.com site. When thinking about observations, many people think of a guy judging people in his notepad. But there are some researchers who use participant observation as a way to gain data. This style of observation consists of the researcher joining their subjects in their activities overtly or covertly, in other words “putting yourself in their shoes”. But is this covert observation a good way to collect data? Comments for Wendy :). Comments for Wendy :). Feb 20, 2012. Feb 21, 2012.

Just another WordPress.com site. Can We Trust an Eyewitness Testimony? When a crime has been committed we usually call upon witnesses to stand and give their account of things that happened, but can we always trust these statements? Is our memory good enough for us to remember details correctly? The video above is from a series on the BBC called Eyewitness, it’s a really interesting series that looks into why we can’t always trust eyewitness accounts. Verb Mean estimate of speed (mph).

Is reliability important? | lon03

https://lon03.wordpress.com/2012/02/05/is-reliability-important

Just another WordPress.com site. In conclusion the main issue that most people have with reliability is that it doesn’t actually prove that what was found is correct. This is surpassed when paired with validity as reliability shows if there is a flawed design and validity shows that what is found is correct. 7 responses ». 3:58 pm at 15:58.

https://psud60.wordpress.com//2012/03/11/body-language

Just another WordPress.com site. Body Language is another name for kinesics or loosely speaking of non-verbal communication in general . The achievement of non-verbal communication is due to body language, such as facial reactions, posture, vocal noises (grunts and mumbling).

Why the “file drawer problem” is a problem | psuc7f

Just another WordPress.com site. Skip to primary content. Why the “file drawer problem” is a problem. February 16, 2012. The term ‘file drawer problem/effect’ is when research is undertaken but provides a negative outcome. This does not mean when the research shows something that negatively affects us, it means that the research conducted has no statistical significance. Therefore the research is not reported because it is extremely hard to publish research that has found no statistical difference. In co...
