APA Formatted Reference: Tyler G. Erath, Azure J. Pellegrino, Florence D. DiGennaro Reed, Sandra A. Ruby, Abigail L. Blackman & Matthew D. Novak (2021) Experimental Research Methodologies in Organizational Behavior Management, Journal of Organizational Behavior Management, 41:2, 150-181, DOI: 10.1080/01608061.2020.1869137 Purpose of the study (1-2 sentences): to present an overview of experimental methods found within OBM. This paper will provide examples of single-case designs, group designs, and other experimental designs as well as their application. Write 5 interesting points of discussion about the study that could be used in class. 1. Erath et al.'s article explores the various experimental designs employed in OBM research. The article delves into the advantages and limitations of both single-case and group designs. Additionally, it explains how these designs facilitate precise deductions regarding observed relationships in organizational behavior. 2. It’s interesting how OBM research covers the spectrum of basic, translational, and applied research. We should explore the differences between basic, translational, and applied research in OBM, including their objectives, approaches, and how they interact with each other. 3. We should study the approach used by researchers to maintain experimental control while also ensuring ecological validity, resulting in findings that are both robust and applicable in real-world organizational contexts. 4. Consider the practical uses of OBM research. Assess how insights derived from basic OBM experiments are utilized in translational research to observe phenomena in more realistic workplace settings. Provide examples of how these applications aid in comprehending and enhancing organizational behaviors. 5. Discuss the incorporation of fundamental and practical research in OBM, with a specific focus on the correlation between improving comprehension of behavioral principles (fundamental research) and enhancing behaviors of societal significance (practical research). Furthermore, we should investigate how principles that are identified in fundamental research assist and add to the formulation of practical research queries in OBM.
