COGNITIVE A main strength of cognitive psychology is that this approach has tended to use a scientific approach through the use of laboratory experiments. A strength of using laboratory experiments is that they are high in control therefore researchers are able to establish cause and effect. For example Loftus and Palmer were able to control the age of the participants‚ the use of video and the location of the experiment. All participants were asked the same questions (apart from changes in the
