Experimentation using a Confederate - Assessment Quiz

This assessment quiz covers the role of confederates as research actors, identification of the dependent variable as the number of behaviors mimicked, recognition of the confederate’s modeled actions, interpretation of how perceived status affects imitation, and the finding that memory recall can be socially contagious.

This assessment quiz covers core methods in experimental psychology, including creativity in experiment design, research ethics, realism, pilot testing, observational methods, and major designs such as two-group, multi-group, within-subjects, and factorial experiments.
