What determines the order of treatments for any given participant in a one factor repeated measures experiment when randomizing the order of treatments is used as a control strategy?
 
  a. the experimenter c. the participants indicate a preference
  b. usually the faculty advisor d. chance



There were two strategies described in your textbook that minimize or eliminate order effects. They are _____.
 
  a. testing and maturation
  b. testing and pretesting
  c. using different experimenters and using the ABA design
  d. counterbalancing and randomizing the order of treatments

  a. present the same order of treatments to the participants in the different groups
  b. present different orders of treatments to participants
  c. use different treatment levels for different participants
  d. randomly determine the particular treatment level given to each participant



In a repeated measures study, a participant first read a story in which an adolescent committed a violent act and was gently told by an adult what alternative action he could have taken instead. The participant then read a story in which an adolescent committed a dishonest but nonviolent act, was arrested, and sent to a detention facility. If reading the first story made the second story seem even more unfair than it would have otherwise, _____ are present in the study.
 
  a. overgeneralizations c. demand characteristics
  b. order effects d. maturational effects



In a repeated measures design, when the contexts in which the treatment conditions are embedded are systematically changed so as to occur equally across treatment conditions, the control technique called _____ is present.
 
  a. treatment reversal c. counterfeiting
  b. equalizing d. counterbalancing



One disadvantage of repeated measures designs is that, compared to between subjects designs, they _____.

  b. not easily confounded
  c. cannot be counterbalanced
  d. usually lack equivalent groups



The _____ of an experiment is the ability to detect a cause-effect relationship when it is in fact true.
