Group #1 Research Topic: The relationship between self-esteem and test performance. Task: Design a correlational study to investigate the relationship between these two variables noted above. 1. What is your hypothesis? 2. How will you operationally define and measure the two variables? 3. How will you obtain a random sample of participants? 4. Explain what a correlation of .56 between the two variables means. 5. Explain one possible confounding variable or a “third variable problem” that is possible in this research design.
Group #2 Research Topic: The relationship between self-esteem and test performance. Task: Design an experimental study to investigate these variables. 1. What is your hypothesis? 2. What type of hypotheses does the experimental method allow you to test that the correlational method does not? 3. How will you operationally define and measure the two variables? 4. . What is your independent variable? What is your dependent variable? 5. Will you use random assignment to conditions? Explain. 6. Do any ethical concerns about the treatment of participants emerge from your experimental design?
Group #3 Research Topic: The relationship between the amount of time couples spend together and their relationship satisfaction. Task: Design a correlational study to investigate the relationship between these two variables noted above. 1. What is your hypothesis? 2. How will you operationally define and measure the two variables? 3. How will you obtain a random sample of participants? 4. Explain what a correlation of .56 between the two variables means. 5.

Group #4 Research Topic: The relationship between the amount of time couples spend together and their relationship satisfaction. Task: Design an experimental study to investigate these variables. 1. What is your hypothesis? If couples spend a significant amount of time together they will be satisfied in their relationship compared to couples that don’t spend time together 2. What type of hypotheses does the experimental method allow you to test that the correlational method does not? This allows for establishing relationships between variables...like time spent together and the effect on relationship satisfaction. This wouldn’t be possible with a correlational study. 3. How will you operationally define and measure the two variables? The time spent together can be defined as time spent doing shared activities, conversations, or different experiences. This can be measured by self reporting using a time log or a app on their phone. Overall satisfaction can be measured by seeing overall happiness. This can be reported by a poll or a series of questions asking about the relationship. 4. . What is your independent variable? What is your dependent variable? Independent: Time spent together Dependent variable: Overall Satisfaction 5. Will you use random assignment to conditions? Explain. The couples will be randomly assigned by which group they are in. Group one beiong and increased amount of time spent together while the other group would stay at their normal amount of time they usually spend together.
6. Do any ethical concerns about the treatment of participants emerge from your experimental design? If the couples are fully informed about the experiment, there should be no ethical concerns. The only concern I can think of is the emotional impact and not knowing how each couple will react. Group #5 Research Topic: The relationship between audience members’ opinions of a movie and their mood. Task: Design a correlational study to investigate the relationship between these two variables noted above. 1. What is your hypothesis? 2. How will you operationally define and measure the two variables? 3. How will you obtain a random sample of participants? 4. Explain what a correlation of .56 between the two variables means.
5. Explain one possible confounding variable or a “third variable problem” that is possible in this research design. Group #6 Research Topic: The relationship between audience members’ opinions of a movie and their mood. Task: Design an experimental study to investigate these variables. 1. What is your hypothesis? 2. What type of hypotheses does the experimental method allow you to test that the correlational method does not? 3. How will you operationally define and measure the two variables? 4. . What is your independent variable? What is your dependent variable? 5. Will you use random assignment to conditions? Explain.
