EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY
SYLLABUS
I. Title: EXPERIMENTS WITH MORE THAN TWO GROUPS
II. DESCRIPTION This chapter is focus at two additional types of designs, the multiple-group design and factorial design. The insights about this designs will contribute a large value in terms of helping AB Psychology Majors to understand how these two designs work, when they are being used, and there importance in conducting experiments. This chapter will also tackle the advantages and disadvantages of these designs.
III. OBJECTIVES * To understand experiments with more than two groups. * To know the strength and weaknesses of multiple group design. * To know the strength and weaknesses of factorial design. * To learn how to choose a between-subjects design. * To apply the mission, vision and goal of this school to this chapter under the guidance of the Holy Spirit and St. Arnold Janssen.
