When an experiment makes use of a small number of participants, the results
a. are easier to replicate than when there are many participants.
b. may miss potentially important findings because research with small samples is not very sensitive.
c. small differences between groups are easier to spot than with large numbers of participants.
d. are seldom valid.
Question 2
When analyzing single-factor, independent-groups designs, researchers need to determine.
1) Is the test assessing differences between groups or assessing relationships?; 2) Are the data based on a nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio scale?; 3) Is the test assessing more than two groups?; and 4)
a. Is the independent variable based on a within-subjects or between-subjects design?
b. Is the appropriate computing hardware/software available to carry out the analysis?
c. Is the research pure or applied in nature?
d. Is the research design supported by governmental funding agencies?
