Cohorts – APA Style…

• Why do you believe the APA has created writing


guidelines for professional publications?
• What was the most helpful element associated
with using APA Style? Why?
• What was the most difficult challenge associated
with using APA Style? Why?
• What might I do differently next time I write an
APA Style Paper?
• What might be some ethical considerations
associated with the report I wrote or the writing
style that I used?.
5
Cohorts – Top Five…

• Cohort ‘A’: Making Systematic


Observations

• Cohort ‘B’: Using Survey Research

• Cohort ‘C’: Using Between-Subjects


and Within-Subjects Designs.

Class Discussion

• What is a Between-Subjects Design?


• Between-Subjects: Different groups
of subjects are assigned to the levels
of your independent variable
• Pros and Cons of this Design.
7
Class Discussion

• What is a Within-Subjects Design?


• Within-Subjects: A single group of
subjects is exposed to all levels of
your independent variable
• Pros and Cons of this Design.
8
Class Discussion

• What is a Single-Subject Design?


• Single-Subject Design: The subject is
exposed to all levels of the
independent variable, however, you
do not average statistically across
subjects
• Pros and Cons of this Design.
