Evaluation Issues
  1. Ethics
    1. situation could have induced stress in the participants as any test conditions can this would break the ethical guideline or protection
      1. ethical = YES
        1. DC COWPAD
          1. however breaks routine/ stressed/ autistics struggle with eye contact
        2. EV
          1. took place in a lab = highly controlled
            1. unnatural surrounding for the participants
            2. unrepresentative data
              1. means that the results are ungeneraliseable to most people
              2. used pictures of real eyes
                1. mostly look at the eyes
                  1. realistic
                2. Data
                  1. QUANTITATIVE data was collected
                    1. scores of each subject on each of the test administered
                      1. eyes task measured whether the subjects had TOM, they saw no need for qualitative data to be collected
                  2. Reliability
                    1. easy to replicate
                      1. concurrent validity was checked
                        1. checked validity by doing the control tasks
                        2. low EV= not realistic when judging emotions
                        3. Validity
                          1. easy to replicate
                            1. highly controlled because it is an experiment
                              1. always stayed in the same location
                            2. Sample
                              1. the sample was small = unrepresentative
                                1. 16 Autistics
                                  1. 50 Non-Autistics
                                    1. 10 Tourettes
                              2. Usefulness
                                1. most people on the autistic spectrum lack TOM and thus knowledge can inform various techniques for people educating and interacting with autistic people
                                  1. help them - teach them to use eye contact
                                  2. SNAPSHOT study
