Download or read book Artifacts in Behavioral Research written by Robert Rosenthal and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-08-03 with total page 907 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new combination volume of three-books-in-one, dealing with the topic of artifacts in behavioral research, was designed as both introduction and reminder. It was designed as an introduction to the topic for graduate students, advanced undergraduates, and younger researchers. It was designed as a reminder to more experienced researchers, in and out of academia, that the problems of artifacts in behavioral research, that they may have learned about as beginning researchers, have not gone away. For example, problems of experimenter effects have not been solved. Experimenters still differ in the ways in which they see, interpret, and manipulate their data. Experimenters still obtain different responses from research participants (human or infrahuman) as a function of experimenters' states and traits of biosocial, psychosocial, and situational origins. Experimenters' expectations still serve too often as self-fulfilling prophecies, a problem that biomedical researchers have acknowledged and guarded against better than have behavioral researchers; e.g., many biomedical studies would be considered of unpublishable quality had their experimenters not been blind to experimental condition. Problems of participant or subject effects have also not been solved. We usually still draw our research samples from a population of volunteers that differ along many dimensions from those not finding their way into our research. Research participants are still often suspicious of experimenters' intent, try to figure out what experimenters are after, and are concerned about what the experimenter thinks of them.
Download or read book The Human Subject in the Psychological Laboratory written by I. Silverman and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for anyone who does or plans to do behavioral research, this book is based on the thesis that the psychological laboratory is a special place for people brought there as subjects. Accordingly, subjects act in ways that bear little relationship to their behaviours in the life situations to which psychologists seek to generalize their findings. An analysis is given of the motives, feelings and intentions common to people who assume the role of psychological subjects. The ways in which their responses confound data and lead to spurious conclusions are described

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are so many good textbooks in the field of this sense the book is more comparable to modern human psychology that anyone producing a new one textbooks of 'harder' sciences such as physics and must have a good excuse, ready to explain his physiology. Theories are considered important, but temerity. Our reason for bringing together the various only theories that are scientific in the sense that they authors who have contributed the chapters of this continuously interact with empirically derived facts. book is a very simple one. Most textbooks are written Theories which seldom make contact with facts (e. g. just for future professional psychologists, i. e. for Jung's theory of archetypes) are generally ignored. students who are going to adopt psychology as their There is one other point about which we would like to be explicit. Textbooks often state different theories life's work, and whose main area of concentration is psychology. These students are, of course, a very im regarding a particular phenomenon, or set of phenom portant group, yet psychology is becoming more and ena, without giving any opinion as to which of these more important to professionals in other fields as well theories might be judged superior to the others.

Download or read book Interaction Concepts of Personality written by Robert C. Carson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Personality" is an intimidatingly complex area of human behaviour, where empirically valid generalizations are not easily established or formulated, and where investigators at the time of publication were themselves a long way from the development of a commonly shared language and conceptual system. Originally published in 1969, Dr Carson’s book provided, for the first time, an empirically grounded, systematic framework to analyse, describe, and to some extent explain the transactions that occur between people from a standpoint of a personologist. The author starts from a Sullivanian base, which views "personality" as a largely interpersonal phenomenon. He then reformulates Sullivanian conceptions into a more complete framework, one more firmly tied to observable events or empirically testable hypotheses. This work represents a unique effort to integrate, from available empirical findings and conceptual formulations within psychology and the social sciences, a comprehensive account of socially significant personal conduct. It brings together, within an integrating framework, diverse trends from modern behaviour theory, personality, social psychology, and behaviour disorder.

Download or read book Social Interaction written by Michael Argyle and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book-length work to reflect the recent trend in social psychology away from artificial laboratory test results. It focuses directly on the detailed, concrete elements of social behavior as they are observed in a real-life setting. Michael Argyle's approach here differs from that more generally taken in two respects. First, he discusses human interaction in terms of the basic elements of behavior-bodily and facial movements, gestures, eye-movements, facial expression, proximity, and orientation, the verbal and non-verbal aspects of communication. Second, he has drawn on research in such varied areas as psychiatry, anthropology, linguistics, ethology, developmental and organizational psychology, as well as on his own extensive experimental studies. Particular emphasis is given to the biological roots of interaction, and to its cultural setting. Social Interaction demonstrates a strong awareness of the current theories of social psychology, while restricting itself in exposition to the observable aspects of human interaction. The result is a comprehensive and stimulating introduction to social interaction. This is primarily a textbook for students of social psychology, but it covers a field that is of central importance for all students of the social and biological sciences.

Download or read book Use of Videos in Developing Oral Expressions of Students written by Ami Rathod and published by Educreation Publishing. This book was released on with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book I have tried to report the experimental research work conducted by me on the use of videos in developing oral expression of students. Language is a skill and it comprises of four skills eg. Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing. Speaking is an expression skill and this could be developed when more and more listening is given to students. Whenever I used to see videos on YouTube I always thought about developing speaking skills with the help of videos, as this is the medium through which the student not only listens the language but also visualize the things. As a member of CTE College we have to conduct projects under the centrally sponsored scheme, to conduct this project I decided to work on the topic which I always used to think about. I took up the topic and conducted an experimental study to develop (oral expression) speaking skill of students through using videos. This book is a report of the work done by me. It is a very small effort in the field of education but I believe that this book will be very useful for the teachers who are concerned for developing language skills of students. Same type of study could be conducted to develop other skills also. Teacher educators and planners could also use the implications of research while planning curriculum/meterials for teachers and students. The ensuing pages of the work are the cumulative consequence of extensive work. Hence, I wish to acknowledge and express my personal gratitude to them without whom this work could not have been reality. I am highly grateful to the Principal of School, Teachers who helped me in conducting classes and Students on whom the study was conducted. I express my gratitude and indebtedness to all those video makers, writers and researchers whose work I have used in this study. My hearty thanks to my family members, friends and well wishers due to their blessings I have been able to write this book. - Dr. AMI RATHORE
Download or read book Research in Verbal Behavior and Some Neurophysiological Implications written by Kurt Salzinger and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research in Verbal Behavior and Some Neurophysiological Implications focuses on varied approaches to the study of language, including verbal behavior in animals, mimicry, linguistics, and verbal satiation. The selection first offers information on verbal behavior in animals and dolphin's vocal mimicry as a unique ability and a way toward understanding. The book also ponders on the problem of response class in verbal behavior and verbal operant conditioning and awareness. Discussions focus on state of the organism as a determinant of response class, topography of response, common stimulus, and common effect. The publication takes a look at a behavioral basis for the polarity principle in linguistics, acquisition of grammar by children, and interdependencies of the bilingual's two languages. The manuscript also elaborates on verbal satiation and exploration of meaning relations and grammatical indicants of speaking style in normal and aphasic speakers. The selection is highly recommended for readers wanting to study verbal behavior.

This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1985. Detailed exploration of the dynamics of language within social psychology forms a social psychology of language which is distinct from other approaches. This volume presents some of the growing body of research in this area, with many theoretical models and ideas - chapters consider the relationship between language and social situations, looking at cognitive structures in how communication between individuals develops in childhood and beyond, how it defines social situations, influences others, expresses feelings and values, evokes social categorizations and how it can break down.
