RESEARCH QUESTION

↳ must be testable

↳
must be specific
↳
must be achievable

HYPOTHESIS
↳
must be testable
↳
a prediction of how IV actects DV

MINIMISING BIAS
↳
large sample and average
↳
use random generator

BIOETHICS
consequence for number stakeholders
=

greatest good greatest of

duty / rule =
they are responsible regardless of the impact ≈
just because it has
good consequence can't just do it
"

virtues =
action justified because it is the right thing to do personal values )

≈
define and
explain positive negative
≈
define explain benefit and harm

CONTROLS
↳
negative control =
what happens if independent variable isn't /
changed , applied ( same as experimental without IV )
≈
correlation doesn't prove causation
=
acts as demonstrates effect of IV on DV
a
comparison
↳
positive control =
the group that shows us what a positive result altected
by IV should look like

↳
gives the expected result

VARIABLES
↳
extraneous variable ( uncontrolled) ≈
a variable dilterent in control and experimental group

REPLICATION
↳
increases reliability
↳
if only done once , no conclusion can be drawn
