[textentry] [c] order [a] Right, a trials effect is an order effect [c] sequence [a] No, you are confusing order effects with sequence effects. [c]* [a] No, order is whether a treatment comes first or second.

 [q] In a two-level, within-subjects experiment, ________ is whether participants get Treatment 1 and then Treatment 2 or participants get Treatment 2 and then Treatment 1, It is a between-subjects variable. [textentry] [c] sequence [a] Yes! [c]* [a] No, sequence is a between-subjects variable.

 [q] If participants score higher on the last trial than on the first, there is a(n) ______ effect. [textentry] [c] order [a] Correct. [c]* [a] No, this is an order (trials) effect: The order in which a participant gets a treatment (e.g., first or second) affects the participant's response.

 [q] ______ effects are probably the biggest problem with within-subjects designs. [textentry] [c] order [a] Good! [c]* [a] No, order effects are probably the biggest problem with within-subjects designs.

  [q] Order effects may be due to _______ effects, fatigue effects, carryover effects, or sensitization. [textentry] [c] practice [a] Right! [c]* [a] No, order effects may be due to practice effects, fatigue effects, carryover effects, or sensitization.

 [q] Order effects may be due to practice effects, fatigue effects, _______ effects, or sensitization. [textentry] [c] carry over; carry-over; treatment carryover; treatment carry-over [a] Right! [c]* [a] No, order effects may be due to practice effects, fatigue effects, carryover effects, or sensitization.

 [q] In a within-subjects design, _______ effects might cause an improvement over trials that might be incorrectly interpreted as a treatment effect.[textentry] [c] practice [a] Right! [c]* [a] Sorry, practice effects might cause an improvement that might be incorrectly interpreted as a treatment effect.

 [q] _______ effects could be viewed as negative practice effects.[textentry] [c] fatigue [a] Good job. [c]* [a] The answer we were looking for was that fatigue effects could be viewed as negative practice effects.

  [q] In within-subjects designs, _____ could harm both internal validity and construct validity.[textentry] [c] sensitization [a] Right! [c]* [a] The answer we were looking for was that sensitization could harm both internal validity and construct validity.

[q] In within-subjects designs, sensitization could harm both ________ validity and construct validity.[textentry] [c] internal [a] Right! [c]* [a] The answer we were looking for was that sensitization could harm both internal validity and construct validity.

 [q] Fatigue effects refer to a _________ in performance on the dependent measure due as the experiment continues. [textentry] [c] decrease; decline [a] Correct [c]* [a] Fatigue effects refer to decreased performance on the dependent measure due to being tired or less enthusiastic as the experiment continues.

 [q] Carryover effects refers to the lingering or delayed effects of a ________ administered earlier in the experiment. [textentry] [c] treatment [a] Yes! [c]* [a] Treatment is the answer we were looking for.

[q] __________ the time between treatments may reduce carryover effects. [textentry] [c] lengthening; increasing [a] Right, with more time, the effects of an earlier treatment are less likely to linger. [c]* [a] Lengthening the time between treatments may reduce carryover effects.

 [q] Giving participants extensive warm-up may reduce ________ effects. [textentry] [c] practice [a] Right, you may be able to get most of the effects of practice to occur before the study starts. [c]* [a] The idea is to reduce practice effects during the study by getting most of the effects of practice to occur before you start collecting data.

 [q] _____________ refers to the problem that after getting several different treatments and performing the dependent-variable task several times, participants in a within-subjects design may realize what the hypothesis is. [textentry] [c]sensitization [a] Good! [c]* [a]The right answer is sensitization.

 [q] One aspect of sensitization is that the participant becomes aware of what the hypothesis is. Being aware of what the hypothesis is and then possibly playing along with the hypothesis, makes sensitization a threat to ________ validity. [textentry] [c]construct [a] Good! [c]* [a]The right answer is construct validity because the participant is acting to please the experimenter rather than genuinely reacting to the treatment manipulation.

 [q] One aspect of sensitization is that the participant is more aware of what the hypothesis is during later trials than in earlier trials. Becoming aware of what the hypothesis during the later trials may create an order effect which could harm the study's ______ validity. [textentry] [c] internal [a] Good! [c] construct [a] No, although sensitization does harm construct validity, order effects harm internal validity. Sensitization harms construct validity by helping the participant play along with the hypothesis. Sensitization harms internal validity by making the participant behave differently on later trials than on earlier trials. This order effect harms internal validity because it could be mistaken for a treatment effect. [c]* [a] An order effect could be mistaken for a treatment effect--and if your study suggests that a treatment caused an effect when it didn't, your study lacks internal validity.

 [q]___________ designs balance out routine order effects. [textentry] [c]counterbalanced within-subjects; counterbalanced [a]Correct. [c]* [a]No, it is counterbalanced within-subjects designs that balance out routine order effects.

 [q]Counterbalanced designs balance out _____ order effects. [textentry] [c]routine; predictable; linear [a]That's right. [c]* [a]No, counterbalanced within-subjects designs balance out routine order effects.

 [q]Counterbalanced designs have the treatment variable as a _______- subjects variable. [textentry] [c]within [a]That's right. [c]* [a]No, in counterbalanced designs, treatment is a within-subjects variable.

  [q]Counterbalanced designs have the variable of ______ as a between- subjects variable. [textentry] [c]sequence; counterbalancing; counterbalanced sequence [a]Correct. [c]* [a]No, in counterbalanced designs, sequence is a between-subjects variable: Different participants are randomly assigned to different sequences.

 [q] Counterbalanced designs have the variable of order as a _____- subjects variable. [textentry] [c]within [a]Yes. [c]* [a]No, in counterbalanced designs, order is a within-subjects variable.

[q] If participants getting good news and then bad news are in a worse mood than participants getting bad news and then good news, there is a(n) ______ effect.[textentry] [c] sequence [a] Good job [c]* [a]Sorry, If participants getting good news and then bad news are in a worse mood than participants getting bad news and then good news, there is a sequence effect.

 [q] In a counterbalanced design, all participants get all the different levels of the treatment variable, but different groups get the treatments in different sequences. Therefore, the counterbalanced design is also a(n) _____ design.[textentry] [c]mixed [a]Right! [c]* [a]Sorry, the answer we were looking for was that the counterbalanced design is a mixed design.
