Q

factorial variations

A
  1. Independent-groups factorial designs: Both independent variables are studies as independent groups (E.g.: in a 2×2 factorial design, there are four different groups of participants in the experiment)
  2. Within-groups factorial designs: Both independent variables are manipulated as within-groups (E.g.: in a 2×2 factorial design, there is only one group of participants, but they participate in all four combinations of the design)
  3. Mixed factorial designs: One independent variable is manipulated as independent-groups, and the other is manipulated as within-groups

between group obscuring factors

A
  • weak manipulation -> door slechte study design geen goede manipulatie (manipulation check!)
  • insensitive measures (door slechte measures kan je geen verschil meten tussen de groepen)
    (- ceiling effect: all scores clustered at the end, te makkelijk)
  • floor effect: all scores clustered at the bottom, te moeilijk)

Q

within group issues of obscuring factors

A

  • Measurement error: A human or instrument factor that can inflate or deflate a person’s true score on the dependent variable
  • Individual differences (use within group design to solve this, or more participants)
  • Situational noise: External distractions (control wat je kan controleren, anders randomiseren)

Q

mixed factorial design

A

manipulate one independent variable between subjects and another within subjects.

For example, a researcher might choose to treat cell phone use as a within-subjects factor by testing the same participants both while using a cell phone and while not using a cell phone (while counterbalancing the order of these two conditions). But he or she might choose to treat time of day as a between-subjects factor by testing each participant either during the day or during the night (perhaps because this only requires them to come in for testing once). Thus each participant in this mixed design would be tested in two of the four conditions.

46
Q

hoe non-specific effects meten

A

door waiting list controls met controls te vergelijken

47
Q

hoe meet je placebo effect

A

negative controls vs waitlist control

48
Q

attrition

A

drop out, problematic if it is in one condition

49
Q

testing

A

the effect of being tested twice (oplossing: control group of alleen posttest).

50
Q

instrumentation

A

door instrumenten. oplossing: control group of alleen posttest.

51
Q

small n reasons

A
  • rare condition
  • homogenous population (fridges)
  • everyone has different symptoms -> everyone is a new experiment
  • you need to know within-subject differences for psychological disorders.
52
Q

small n vs large n

A

small n = differences between individuals. large n is differences within population

53
Q

3 small n designs

A
  • stable baseline design
  • reversal design
  • multiple baseline design
54
Q

stable baseline design

A

[M1 M2 M3] T [M4 M5 M6]

55
Q

stable baseline design waar controleer je voor en waar niet voor

A
  • Solves the measurement problem
  • Accurate estimate of individual parameter
  • Controls for some internal validity threats
  • Maturation
  • History
  • Non-specific effect
  • Regression to the mean

niet: placebo of non-specific effects?

56
Q

reversal design

A

you run consecutive sessions of the same condition until stable, and then you switch to another condition. if the behaviour differs between control and testing phase, the effect can be attributed to the treatment.

57
Q

multiple baseline design

A

study the effect of the intervention on multiple variables.

58
Q

when quasi experiment

A

if experiment is…

unethical
unpractical
unnatural
impossible

59
Q

quasiexperiment kenmerken

A

geen randomisatie, en niet dubbelblind. maar een groep deelnemers die interventie ondergaat wordt vergeleken met een groep die geen interventie ondergaat. the manipulation is an already scheduled event, therefore the researcher is not in control (bv plastische chirurgie).

60
Q

power =

rejecting the H0 when it is indeed not the correct hypothesis.

61
Q

the same conclusions as a 95% confidence interval
*
e.g.,: a
significance test with a significance level of 0.01 will produce
the same conclusions as a 99% confidence interval

A

Ha: u1-u2 =/= 0

75
Q

standard error =

A

=s = the estimated standard deviation of the sampling distribution

76
Q

df with two independent groups

is we can assume that s1=s2; then df = n1 + n2 - 2

77
Q

hoe t value krijgen uit df

A

t.inv

78
Q

95% CI bij twee groepen =

A

x1 - x2 +- t0,025*se

79
Q

a 95% CI means that …

A

that in the long run,
95% of your confidence intervals will include the true parameter value

80
Q

observational study

A

compare the results of one group to a standard

81
Q

a sampling distribution for 2 proportions is normal when….

A

n 1 p 1 ≥ 10 and n 1 (1 p 1 ) ≥ 10 in group 1 and if n 2 p 2 ≥ 10 and n 2 (1 p 2 ) ≥ 10 in group 2

82
Q

a sampling distribution for 2 proportions is normal when….

A

n 1 p 1 ≥ 10 and n 1 (1 p 1 ) ≥ 10 in group 1 and if n 2 p 2 ≥ 10 and n 2 (1 p 2 ) ≥ 10 in group 2

83
Q

dus het verschil tussen 1 proportion en 2 proportions between independent groups:

A

de assumptie over normale verdeling:
1 proportion = normally distributed if np > 15
2 proportions = normally distributed if n1p1 > 10
(3 for two sided test: n*p >5)

(two proportions has a smaller necessary assumption than 1)

84
Q

if the interval contains 0…

A

the proportions/means do not differ significantly

85
Q

assumptions for two proportions in 2 sided test

A

n*p => 5!

86
Q

hoe bereken je ^p voor 2 proporties

A

= overall passed/n1 + n2

87
Q

𝑥̅𝑑 berekenen: in welke sample en hoe?

A

in matche-pairs of repeated measures.
alle scores van elkaar aftrekken en daar het gemiddelde van nemen (x1 - x2 etc).

88
Q

wat is n bij dependent samples

A

aantal paren!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

89
Q

wanneer mcnemar’s test

A

bij dependent samples: proportions

90
Q

assumptions of mc nemars test

A
  • categorical variables
  • the sum of the frequencies is at least 30

fomule -> z score -> p value

91
Q

wat te doen bij 2 categorical variables…

A

contingency table!

92
Q

conditional proportion

A

the proportion of the response variable, for one level of the explanatory variable

93
Q

what is independence for conditional proportions

A

independence: a response variable is independent of the explanatory variable (no association!) if the conditional proportions are the same.

94
Q

what is dependence for conditional proportions

A

dependence: a response variable is dependent of the explanatory variable (association) if the conditional proportions are different

95
Q

assumptions for when both variables are categorical: strength of assocication

A
  • categorical
  • random
  • each cell has 5 expected counts
96
Q

hypotheses for 2 categorical variables: strength of association

A

H0: the variables are independent
Ha: the variables are dependent

97
Q

what does the H0 of cat ass imply?

A

that P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B) (want multiplication rule for independent H0!) events.

If H0 is true, then P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)

98
Q

table maken expected by H0

A
  1. proportions normaal aan de RANDEN (deel/totaal!)
  2. middelste cellen: rand x rand
  3. alle getallen x n -> zodat je de expected frequencies hebt ipv proportions.
    (assumption: if any of these variables is < 5, the test should not be performed).

dus….

expected frequency = (row total x column total)/total n

99
Q

chi square test voor…

A

determining how much the observed and expected values differentiate from each other.

100
Q

x2 distribution

A
  • always positive
  • df = (rows -1) *(columns -1)
  • mean = df
  • two sided always
  • large x2 = evidence against independence = H0 is rejected (large x2 = association likely)
101
Q

hoe van p value naar x2 value

A

chisq.inv(0,95;df)

102
Q

hoe van x2 naar p value

A

chisq.dist (voor links), 1-chisq.dist (voor rechts) -> automatisch voor two sided, dus nooit x2!

103
Q

difference between x2 and statistical test

A

large x2 implies strong evidence against H0, pvalue says nothing about the size/strongness of association

104
Q

two measures for strength of association

A
  1. difference of the conditional proportions between treatment and control group
  2. relative risk: ratio of conditional proportions
105
Q

bij categorical, wanneer gebruik je wat?

A

2x2 rows: je kan z score gebruiken
meer dan 2 rows: chi square test gebruiken!

106
Q

als je de z score gebruikt voor tabel, hoe doe je dit met de proporties berekenen?

A

^p = aantal successen/totaal n
^p1 = aantal successen ene groep / totaal n
^p2 = aantal sucessen andere groep / totaal n

107
Q

x2 distribution is eigenlijk…

A

sampling distribution under H0

108
Q

welke waarde vul je hier in bij de chisq.inv(x;df)

A

probability = 0,95!!!! niet 0.05!!!!

109
Q

hoe bereken je population proportions

A

deel/row total

110
Q

HOE KOM JE BIJ DE T SCORE VOOR T0,025

A

t0,025 -> t.inv(0,975)!!!!
