Covers the Learn material from Module 6: Week 6.

1. Catz and colleagues conducted an experiment with 207 individuals taking HIV medications. Participants were randomly assigned to read one of six vignettes. The vignettes varied by medical situation and physician prescription action. For medical situation, participants were randomly assigned to one of three levels. For physician prescription action, participants were randomly assigned to one of two conditions. In this example, the factorial design would be represented as:
2. A researcher has created a factorial research design. She has two between subjects variables. What type of design does the researcher have?
3. __________ research designs have more than one independent variable.
4. A __________ subjects factorial research design is a research design in which the independent variables are not all the same type.
5. In the standard form __________ X __________, what goes in the first blank?
6. Researchers Brescoll and Uhlmann (2008) wanted to know if men and women were judged the same for expressing similar emotions in the workplace. Participants in this experiment watched a video of a job candidate. The job candidates were being interviewed while sitting at a table. The job candidates were describing an incident in which they and a colleague lost an important account and how it made them feel. The first independent variable was sex of job candidate. Sex had two levels: male and female. The second independent variable was emotion displayed. Emotion displayed had two levels: anger and sadness. So, participants viewed one of four job candidates. With this information, what type of factorial research design was used?
7. A __________ subjects factorial research design is a research design in which all independent variables are between subjects.
8. A recent study by Dommeyer (2008) examined what factors influence whether or not people respond to a mail survey. In other words, are there factors that can influence if a person responds to a survey that he or she received in the mail? Dommeyer wanted to know if the attractiveness of the researcher (attractive and not attractive) in a cover letter would influence if people responded to the mail survey. Dommeyer also wanted to know if the sex of the researcher (male or female) in the cover letter would influence if people responded to the mail survey. This quasi-experiment would be referred to as a _____ X ______ research design.
9. Which of the following statements regarding main effects is incorrect?
10. In the standard form __________ X __________, what goes in the second blank?

The researchers would observe the participants in certain problem situations, recording their behavior. Then, the researchers would read the participants a story before a problem situation was presented. They would then record the number of behaviors exhibited by the participants in relation to the problem situation. Finally, the researchers removed the story and recorded the number of behaviors the next time the problem situation arose. What is the dependent variable in this study?
