3 levels of understanding
description, prediction, control
description
consist of a collection of facts about the observed events
that can be quantified, classified, or examined for possible
relations with other known facts.
prediction
, relative probability that when one event occurs, another
event will or will not occur
control
highest level of understanding
functional relations can be derived
When a systematic covariation occurs between two
events, we are able to predict the probability that one
event will occur in conjunction with the other event.
This is called________
correlation
_______________studies produce a collection of facts
about the observed events that can be quantified,
classified, and examined for possible relations with
other known facts.
descriptive
manipulating one event (the independent variable) in
order to produce a reliable change in another event
(the dependent variable), and the change in the
dependent variable is not likely due to other
extraneous factors (known as confounding variables).
This relationship is referred to as a_______
functional relationship
A _______________is demonstrated when we
_______________ the independent variable and see a
_______________ in the dependent variable and that
change is not likely due to _______________.
functional relationship, manipulate, change, extraneous
variables
