PSYC 217 Lecture Notes - Lecture 15: Operational Definition, Syphilis, Mental Chronometry
Document Summary
All of the above are crossed factorial designs. Crossed factorial designs = researchers study all possible condition. You can cross and have every possible situation. E. g. violent video game and non violent game + men and women. = women playing non violent and women playing violent, men and non violent and men and violent. You have one broad factor and all the other factors nested under it, preventing full crossing. School district 1; school district 2 (the overarching factor) You can"t fully cross because if school district 2a is located in district. 1, you can"t have it located in district 2. These are the 6 conditions possible, not anymore. A study done in the ubc psych department on sexual assault. The hypothesis was in exploring the result when men are exposed to biological theories of sexual violence or assault. Control condition (in trying to keep the theme consistent, sex amongst the elderly population)
