WHAT DO ESPERIMENTAL DESIGNS DO
|
THEY MEASURE THE EFFICACY OF AN INTERVENTION SUCH AS A DRUG. ONE GROUP GETS THE PLACEBO WHILE THE OTHER GROUP GETS THE MEDICATION
|
|
|
WHAT GROUP GETS THE PLACEBOQ
|
THE CONTROL GROUP AND THEY HAVE THE SAME EXPECTION AS THE EXPERIMENTAL GROUP WHO GETS THE ACTIVE TREATMENT
|
|
|
WHY ARE BLIND TECHNIQUES USED
|
IT PREVENTS PARTICIPANTS OR RESEARCHES OR BOTH FROM KNOWING WHICH TREATMENT PARTICIPANTS RECIVE AND THUS CONTROLLING FOR EXPECTANCY
|
|
|
HOW DOES PSYCHOLOGY RESEARCH CONTRIBUTE TO HEALTH KNOWLEDGE
|
1. ITS LONG TRADITION OF TECHNIQUES TO CHANGE BEHAVIOR
2. EMPHASIS ON HEALTH RATHER THAN DISEASE 3. THE DEVELOPMENT OF RELIABLE AND VALID MEASURING INSTRUMENTS 4. THE CONSTRUCTION OF USEFUL THEORETICAL MODELS TO EXPLAIN HEALTH-RELATED RESEARCH 5. VARIOUS RESEARCH METHODS USED IN PSCHOLOGY |
|
|
TWO TYPE OF RESEARCH METHODS IN PSCYOLOGY
|
DESCRIPTIVE METHODS
ESPERIMENTAL METHODS |
|
|
CORRECLATIONAL STUDIES
|
SHOW A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TWO VARIABLES
NEVER CAUSE AND EFFECT IE BODY FAT AND HEART DISEASE |
|
|
EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH
|
MANIPULATE INDEPENDENT VARIABLE
MEASURS DEPENDENT VARIABLE ABLE TO MAKE INFERENCE ABOUT CAUSE AND EFFECT |
|
|
EX POST FACTO STUDIES
|
COMPARE GROUPS BUT NO MANIPULATION
|
|
|
EPIDEMIOLOGY CONTRIBUTES TO
|
CONCEPT OF
RISK FACTORS PREVALENCE AND INCIDENCE |
|
|
RISK FACTOR
|
OCCURS WITH GREATER FREQUENCY IN PEOPLE WITH A DISESE THAN IT DOES IN PEOPL FREE FROM THAT DISEASE
|
|
|
PREVALENCE
|
IS THE PROPORTION OF THE POPULATION THAT HAS A PARTICULAR DIESESE AT A SPECIFIC TIME
|
|
|
INCIDENCE
|
MEASURE THE FREQUENCY OF NEW CASES OF THE DISEASE FURING A SPECIFIED TIME
|
|
|
LIST THREE TYPES OF STUDIES IN EPIDEMIOLOGY
|
OBSERVATIONAL METHODS
NATURAL EXPERIMENTS RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED STUDIES |
|
|
OBSERVATIONAL METHODS
|
TWO
1. RETROSPECTIVE 2. PROSPECIFE STUDIES |
|
|
RTETROSPECTIVE STUDIES
|
USUALL CASE CONTROL STUDIES
THAT BEGIN BY LOOKING AT PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE DISEASE AND THEN LOOKING FOR CHARACTERISTICS OF PEOPLE THAT ARE DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE THE DISEASE (CONTROLS) |
|
|
PROSPECTIVE STUDIES
|
LONGITUDINAL DESIGNS THAT FOLLOW A GROUP CALLED A COHORT FORWARD TO STUDY THE DEVELOPMENT OF A DISORDER
|
|
|
EPIDEMIOLOGY IS
|
A BRANCH OF SCIENCE THAT INVESTIGATES FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO THE OCCURENCE OF THE DISEASE
|
|
|
NATURAL ARE LIKE
|
EX POST FACTO STUDIES
