Quasi ExperimentationInternal vs. external validityInternal allows you to detect
effectsBut is generally low in
applicabilityExternal validity makes the study
applicableBut decreases chance to detect
effect.

Archival studiesLooking at events in history and
measuring their effect◦Looking at records◦Looking at changes before and after.
No ability to detect cause.Naturalistic observations
combined with sound data collection.

Time series designRepeated measuresTime one and time two are the
minimumCan be an experimental

Single group pre-postPre M X post MRemember – no control here – so
cannot truly conclude if the IV made the changes

Interrupted time seriesAdding more pre and post tests Allows us to assess changes that
we cant see with a single shot.

Multiple time seriesJust like multiple but uses a
control group!No random assignment though.Adds some control – but still cant
detect cause

Cohort Designs
Time series with cohorts ◦Can be interrupted
Cohort 2007: Track for 2 years, Monthly
Cohort 2006: Track for 2 years, Monthly
Cohort 2005: Track for 2 years, Monthly

Correlational designsDesigns that are relating
variablesBut not seeking to see which
causes the otherUsed not to establish causeBut to show a relationship to then
allow for further studyPrevents us from wasting time
and resources

Naturalistic studySimply observing and describing
Darwin on the HMS Beagle◦ Started as simple observations◦ Went on to develop ideas◦ Eventually a theory◦ Now tests of that theory◦ Now it exists as a definition of life.

Naturalistic study cont.Hawthorne effect (reactance)
◦ Being observed causes changes◦ Use unobtrustive observations
Selective perception◦ We choose to focus on certain things◦ We are influenced by what we expect to see◦ Boredom – leads you to looking for boredom!
