Introduction to power and effect size
In these clips, Professor Barry Cohen covers more advanced concepts involved in null hypothesis testing:
How do we define an effect in psychological research?
How can effect size be measured?
What is meant in statistics by power, and how does it depend on effect size and sample size?
How does one conduct a power analysis?
Why do researchers perform null hypothesis testing?
- In order to prove that the treatment or manipulation they are testing has definitely had an effect.
- In order to make a decision about whether the treatment or manipulation they are testing has an effect or not.
Can power analysis tell you how big the effect size will be?
- Yes
- No

Developing a research question
What is research design?
- Your research design is the plan you develop to outline the methods and procedures you will use throughout your research project.
- Your research design is a rough plan that helps guide you throughout your research project, it does not go into detail about the methods and procedures you will use.
- Your research design is a detailed plan that determines the methods and procedures right at the beginning, that you will use throughout your research project.
What should your research question aim to do?
- Your question should be broad to allow for as much investigation and research into the topic area.
- Your question should simply and briefly communicate the key information about what variables you'll be exploring.
- Your question should list the key information in detail about what variables you'll be exploring.
