Yo,
Add these definitions into your white RM booklets:
experiment - investigations where a variable is manipulated or altered, and its effect can be measured, while maintaining control over other variables that might affect the situation
lab experiment - an experiment conducted in a controlled environment
field experiment - a piece of research that takes place in the setting where the behaviour would naturally occur
operationalisation - defining the variables specifically so they are directly measured and tested
independent variable - the variable manipulated (changed) by the researcher to show a difference between the conditions
dependent variable - the variable that is measured or the results of the experiment
Remember to have examples for each key term - this is worth a mark in any 'define' exam question
KOP!
