Research Methods

1.	Confounding Variables	A.	the variable that is being measured in an experiment
2.	Control Group	B.	composed of participants who do not receive the experimental treatment
3.	Correlation Coefficient	C.	an extraneous variable in a statistical model that correlates (positively or negatively) with both the dependent and independent variables
4.	Dependent Variable	D.	A group of subjects that are exposed to the variable of a control experiment
5.	Descriptive Statistics	E.	a data collection tool used to gather information about individuals
6.	Experimental Group	F.	the difference between the highest and lowest observations
7.	Experimentation	G.	the most frequently occurring score in a distribution
8.	Independent Variable	H.	a rough measure of the average amount by which observations deviate on either side of the mean
9.	Inferential Statistics	I.	the characteristic of a psychology experiment that is manipulated or changed
10.	Mean	J.	making predictions or inferences about a population from observations and analyses of a sample
11.	Median	K.	a value or quantity lying at the midpoint of a frequency distribution of observed values or quantities
12.	Mode	L.	an in-depth study of one person
13.	Naturalistic Observation	M.	a number between +1 and -1 that describes the type of relationship an independent variable has with a dependent variable.
14.	Range	N.	statistics that are used to describe
15.	Standard Deviation	O.	manipulating one variable to determine if changes in one variable cause changes in another variable
16.	The Case Study	P.	the mathematical average of a set of numbers
17.	The Survey	Q.	observing subjects in their natural environment
