Cards in this deck (19)
- 1A document addressing the rationale, background, objective(s), methodology, analyses, and all relevant ethical aspects of a research project involving human participants.Research plan
- 2Data that can lead to the identification of a person. Note that the law also distinguishes especially sensitive personal data, to which additional rules applyPersonal data
- 3purporting that research will achieve goals that it is unlikely to realize, participants do not have capacities to evaluate these claims and thus must receive accurate informationHyper claiming
- 4falsely establishing a causal relationship to promote researchCausism
- 5Characteristics and Consequences of Causimabsence of an appropriate evidential base; (b) presence of language implying cause (instead of appropriate e.g. related to) and (c) selfserving benefits to the casuist. Distorts recruitment basis
- 6Fabricated data; or dropping of data that contradicts researcher’s biasdata dropping
- 7Omission should be reported for whatoutlier rejection
- 8Omission of entire subset of data should be reportedSubject selection
- 9the balance between self-serving chasing of Pvalues and thorough analysis of expensive dataExploitation Is Beautiful: Snooping in data
- 10Failure to perform meta-analyses is unethical because it drops opportunity to retroactively improve utility of prior researchRetroactive increase of Utilities
- 11Not citing data that has not been peer reviewed yet, which still should be available for, say, meta analytic reviews as long as it was properly acquired - Failing to report data that contradict own hypothesis, or earlier Research - Bottom line is: Everything should be reported and made availableself-censoring
- 12- Bad methodology should not be published and will be censored via gatekeepers (e.g. peer reviewers) - It is bad ethics/bad science to not publish implausible/unfavorable resultsExternal censoring
- 13different Experimenters get differing results by highly comparable subjects. Thus, the fluctuation in results may be (partly) attributable to effects by respective ExperimentersExperimenter Effects / Bias
- 1418% of variance accounted for by expectancy; under more usual conditions of a psychological experiment, Es expectation determines the magnitude of data the Experimenter will obtain substantiallyE-Expectation
- 15Expectancy induced by more prestigious figure may be more influential as expectancy created independentlyBias Origin
- 16the totality of cues towards the experimental hypothesis by which subjects are motivated to confirm the hypothesis (in a problem-solving mannerDemand characteristics of the experimental situation
- 17factors that affect the subjects’ response to the well-defined stimuli and experiment as conducted as a physical experimentexperimental setting
- 18Experimenters notice trends when collecting data, this influences their hypothesis and further testingEarly Data Returns
- 19Extent to which an experimenter’s own performance on a test determines his participants’ performance on the same taskModelling effects
