Week 6 Assignment: Research Strategy, Design, and Analysis Plan

 

NAME:  

 

Instructions: Use this worksheet to strategize a plan for how you will conduct your study to best examine your hypothesis. Reviewing Chapters 6, 15, and the chapter that corresponds to your particular design (one of the chapters between 7 and 14) will be helpful for this assignment. Please write in complete sentences.

 

Provide Hypothesis
For convenience, please paste your hypothesis here.
 

 

 

Research Strategy 2 points
There are five potential research strategies discussed in the textbook. (Hint: review Table 6.3)

·       What is the general approach you will take?

In your answer, please discuss the kind of question your research study hopes to answer (there are three general kinds)

 
   

 

 

Research Design 1: Group or Individual? 2 points
Will the study examine a group of individuals or focus on a single individual? Please explain.

·       Note: Use caution here. Most studies use a group of individuals. There are very few instances in which using a single-subject design is useful.

 
   

 

 

 

 

Research Design 2: Same or Different Individuals? 3 points
Will this study be a within-person design, a between-person design, a combination, or neither? Please explain.  
   

 

Research Design 3: Number of Variables 3 points
How many variables will be observed, manipulated, or regulated?

Describe your study in terms of being a single-factor design or factorial design (e.g., two-factor design, three-factor design, etc.).

Use the language from Chapter 11 to describe your levels (for example, “This study will use a 2×2 factorial design.”)

·       Please discuss all the specific variables you will include here

Remember, any variable you would like to include should have been also discussed on Assignment 3 in your discussion of measures

 
   

 

Research Methodology 5 points
Please review your responses to the previous sections of this sheet and write a paragraph formally describing:

1.     Your research strategy

2.     Your research design

3.     The threats to internal and external validity you anticipate (and if you’ll be able to combat them)

Here, please specify the design from the types listed in your textbook.

·       Hint: If done well, this will directly contribute to your method section in your research proposal.

 
   

 

 

Analysis Plan 5 points
Please review Chapter 15 and discuss:

1.     The statistics you will provide to describe your sample

The statistics you plan to use to test your hypothesis
