25
Crowdsourcing
Many many people invited to participate in project via internet or social networks, even a small % of completes generates a large sample
26
Pretesting
Screening procedure to iron out fundamental problems in survey design
27
Observer bias
Distortion resulting from cognitive behavior or action of a witnessing observer
28
Contrived observation
Artificial environment to test a hypothesis
29
Response latency
Time taken to chose between alternatives. Measures strength of preference
30
Artifacts
Things made and consumed within culture signaling something meaningful about behavior occurring
31
Portable people meter 360 PPM360
Small cellphone automatically detects broadcast signals, satellite radio, and tv transmissions
32
Pupilometer
Device record changes in diameter of subjects pupils
33
Eye tracking monitor
Observes eye movements, some monitors use infrared to measure unconscious eye movement
34
Psycho galvanometer
Measures galvanic skin response, electrical resistance of skin
35
Voice pitch analysis
Records abnormal frequencies in voice that reflect emotional reactions
36
Subjects
Sampling units for experiment
37
Experimental conditions
One possible levels of an experimental variable manipulation
38
Blocking variables
Categorical variables, way of statistically controlling variance
39
Covariate
Continuous variable included in statistical analysis as a way of controlling variance
40
Main effect
Difference in dependent variable means between the different levels of any single experimental variable
41
Interaction effects
Differences in dependent variable due to specific combination of independent variables
42
Cell
Specific treatment combination associated with experimental group
43
Test units
Subjects or entities whose responseto the experimental treatment are measured or observed
44
Randomization
Random assignment of subject and treatments to groups
45
Repeated measures
Subjects is exposed to multiple treatments
46
Confound
Alternative explanation beyond variables for any observed differences in dependent variable
47
Demand characteristic
Experimental design elements or procedure unintentionally provides subjects with hints about hypothesis
48
Demand effect
When demand characteristic actually affect dependent variable
49
Dependent variable (criterion)
The thing we are trying to indirectly change
50
Independent variable (predictor)
The thing we control to change the criterion (treatment)
51
Counterbalancing
Eliminate confounding effects of order of presentation. 1/4th exposed to A first, 1/4th to B first, 1/4th to C first, and 1/4th to D first
52
Tachistoscope
Time subject is exposed to visual image
53
Within subject design
Repeat measurements because each treatment measures the same subject
54
Between subject design
Each subject receives only one treatment combo
55
Manipulation check
Makes sure manipulation does produce differences in independent variable
56
History effect
Some change other than experimental treatment occurs during course of experiment that affects dependent variables
57
Cohort effect
Change in dependent variable occurring because member of one group experienced different historic situations than members of another group
58
Maturation effect
Time and naturally occurring events coincide with growth and experience
59
Testing effects
Effects when initial measurements or tests primes subjects in a way that affects response
60
Instrumentation effect
Change in wording of question, change in interviewers, or other procedure cause change in dependent variable
61
Mortality effect
Subjects withdraw from experiment before its done
62
External validity
Accuracy with which experimental results can be generalized beyond subjects
63
Internal validity
Exists to the extent that an experimental variable is truly responsible for any variance in dependent variable
64
Attention filters
Items that have known and obvious answer Included just to see if participants are playing along
65
Test market sabotage
Intentional attempts to disrupt the results of a test-market being conducted by another firm
66
Lab experiments
More control over research setting and extraneous variables
67
Field experiments
Involve experimental manipulation that are implemented in natural environments
68
Consistency of conditions
Subjects in all groups exposed to identical conditions except for differing treatments
69
Placebo
False treatment disguising the fact no real treatment is administered
70
Placebo effect
Effect in dependent variable associated with psychological impact along with knowledge of some treatment being administered
71
Systematic or nonsampling error
Occurs if sampling units in experimental cell are some how different than units in another cell and this affects the dependent variables
72
Experimental Group
Subjects who a treatment is administered to
73
Control group
Subjects whom no experimental treatment is administered, serves as baseline for comparison
74
Experimental treatment
The way an experimental variable is manipulated
