CPCE EXAM 2025 WITH 100% ACCURATE
SOLUTIONS
When counselors do integrate research into practice. - Precise Answer
✔✔Empirically validated Treatment or Empirically Supported treatment
Correlation is simply an association. It is not the same as causality. The
correlation between people who have an umbrella open and rain is very
high, but opening your umbrella does not cause it to rain. - Precise
Answer ✔✔Correlation
Go from negative 1 to 0 to positive 1. Zero means no correlation while
positive 1 and negative 1 are perfect correlations. A negative .5 is not
higher than a correlation of -.5 In fact, a correlation of -.8 is stronger
than a correlation of .5.
A positive correlation: when x goes up, y goes up. For example, when
you study more, your GPA goes up.
A negative correlation: when x goes up y goes down. For example, the
more you brush your teeth, the less you will be plagued by cavities. -
Precise Answer ✔✔Three types of correlations
when one quanitifes or measures things. It yields numbers. - Precise
Answer ✔✔Quantitative research
When does research does not use numberical data - Precise Answer
✔✔Qualitative research
,When research has flaws - Precise Answer ✔✔Bubbles
Two or more groups are udes. - Precise Answer ✔✔What is a true
experiment?
People are picked randomly and placed in groups using random
assignment. - Precise Answer ✔✔What is random sampling?
where every nth person is chosen can also be used howere, researchers
stillprefer random sampling and random assignment - Precise Answer
✔✔Systematic sampling
When the groups are not picked at random or the researcher cannot
control the IV then it is a quasi rather than a true experiment. quasi-
experimental research does not ensure causality. - Precise Answer
✔✔What is quasi-experimental research?
The experimental group gets the IV and it is known as the experimental
variable. - Precise Answer ✔✔What is the independent variable
the outcome data in the study is called the DV. If we want to see if
eating carrots raises one's IQ then eating carrots is the IV while the IQ
scores at the end of the study would be the DV. - Precise Answer
✔✔what is the DV or dependent variable?
,When a researcher rejects a null hypothesis that is true. - Precise Answer
✔✔Type I alpha error
When a research accepts null when it should have been rejected. -
Precise Answer ✔✔Type II beta error
.05 or less (.01 to .001) The signifcance level gives you the probability
of a type 1 error. - Precise Answer ✔✔What is significance levels in
social science?
a single subject design or case study and thus does not rely on IV, DV,
control group, ect. Case studies are becoming more popular. - Precise
Answer ✔✔N=1
evident when subjects in a study have cues regarding what the researcher
deires or does not desire that influence their behavior. This can
counfound an experiment rendering the research inaccurate. - Precise
Answer ✔✔Demand characteristics
if subjects know they are being observed. Observers' presence can
influence subject's behavior rather than merely the experimental variable
or treatment modality. - Precise Answer ✔✔An obtrustive or a reactive
measure
When subjects are not aware that they are being measured. - Precise
Answer ✔✔Unobtrusive measure
, when an experimental has few flaws and thus findings are accurate. The
IV caused the changes in the DV, not some other factor (known as
confounding extraneous variables or artifacts). When internal vaility is
low the researcher didn't measure what he thought he measured. -
Precise Answer ✔✔Internal vailidty
it is high when the results in a study can be generalized to other settings.
- Precise Answer ✔✔External validity
a popular parametric test for comparing two means. - Precise Answer
✔✔A t test
Also called a one-way ANOVA. used when you have two or means to
compare. The t test and the ANOVA are parametric measures for
normally distributed populations. The ANOVA provides F values and
the F test will tell you if significant differences are present. - Precise
Answer ✔✔ANOVA or analysis of variance
Used when you are investigating more than one DV> - Precise Answer
✔✔MANOVA
When you are investigating more than one IV/experimental variable (if
you have two IVs it would be called a two-way ANOVA three IVs a
three way ANOVA.) - Precise Answer ✔✔A factorail analysis of
variance
