Question

Insert Table Chart Text Shape Media Comment Here are the major research methods used by psychologists. Match each with one of the following exam- ples of research. a. case history 2. Ben is counseling with Fepnimore Jones in a small room in the neuropsychiatric hospital. Ben is a graduate student in clinical psychology and Fennimore is his client. Fennimor? was admitted to the neuropsychiatric hospital when he came to the student health clinic complaining that he hears voices shouting obscenities at him, and confiding that he thinks he is going through a spontaneous sex change. After each session with Fepnimore, Ben writes a report describing Fepnimore's verbal and nonverbal behavior and his interpretations of the behavior. b. naturalistic observation Ed is an undergraduate psychology major. For his senior thesis he is investigating the nature of the audience for pornography. This afternoon he is sitting in his car across the street from one of the pornographic bookstores in the area. He is taking notes on the sex, approximate age, and ethnicity of the patrons as they enter and leave the store. 6. c. laboratory observation 1. Frank is a full professor who is interested in the factors that affect the performance of rats who are learning to find their way through a complex maze. Every afternoon he gives each of his 50 rats ten trials in the maze, counting the number of wrong turns each rat makes on its way through the maze. d. survey 5. Dee is an assistant professor who will teach introductory psychology for the first time next term. She has chosen some films to show to her class of more than 200 students, and is now preparing a ques- tionnaire to administer to her students after each film. She thinks getting student reactions to the films will be helpful next time she teaches the class. c. psychological tests Carl is a graduate student who plans to become a psychometrician. He, like Ben, is working at the neuropsychiatric hospital. His job is to administer a battery of tests to new patients. He will send the test results, along with his summary and interpretation of them, to the patient's clinical psychologist or psychiatrist. 3. f experiment Ada is testing the hypothesis that color preference can be influenced by associating a color with a pleasant experience, such as eating.
