Surveys02:16

Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.
Factors Affecting Perception01:25

Factors Affecting Perception

Perception is influenced by perceptual set, context, motivation, and emotion. Perceptual set, or perceptual expectancy, refers to the tendency to perceive things in a particular way, influenced by previous experiences and expectations. This phenomenon affects the interpretation of stimuli, creating a set of mental tendencies and assumptions that impact sensory perceptions of sound, taste, touch, and sight.
An illustrative example of a perceptual set is the scenario where an airline pilot told...
Persuasion Strategies01:52

Persuasion Strategies

Researchers have tested many persuasion strategies, including the foot-in-the door and the door-in-the-face techniques, in a variety of contexts. Ultimately, the principles are effective in selling products and changing people’s attitude, ideas, and behaviors (Cialdini & Goldstein, 2004).
Introducing Social Perception01:29

Introducing Social Perception

Perceiving others accurately is fundamental to effective communication and relationship-building. Social perception, a key concept in social psychology, refers to the cognitive processes through which individuals gather and interpret information about others to understand their actions, intentions, and motivations. This process extends beyond spoken words and overt behaviors, incorporating subtle nonverbal cues and contextual factors.Nonverbal Cues and Their SignificanceNonverbal cues play a...
Case Studies01:22

Case Studies

There are many research methods available to psychologists in their efforts to understand, describe, and explain behavior and the cognitive and biological processes that underlie it.
Naturalistic Observations02:30

Naturalistic Observations

If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Mental Health Policy
  • Patient and Public Involvement (PPI)

Background:

  • Government policy has prioritized user involvement in health services since 1990.
  • Concerns exist that 'activist' service users may not represent 'ordinary' patients in mental health settings.
  • Limited research addresses the outcomes of user involvement in mental health services.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore service users' perceptions of user involvement outcomes in two London boroughs.
  • To compare outcome perceptions between activist and non-activist service users.
  • To address the representativeness of involved service users in mental health.

Main Methods:

  • A user-led, qualitative study employing semi-structured interviews.
  • 40 participants were interviewed: 20 activists and 20 non-activists, with 20 in each of the two London boroughs.
  • Interviews were conducted by user-researchers.

Main Results:

  • Activists demonstrated greater awareness of user groups and involvement forms.
  • No significant differences were found in the perceived outcomes of user involvement between activists and non-activists.
  • Findings suggest a convergence in perceived outcomes despite differing levels of engagement.

Conclusions:

  • Contrary to reservations, activist and non-activist service users report similar outcomes from involvement.
  • This pilot study highlights the need for further research on user involvement outcomes.
  • Future research should include perspectives from other stakeholders like front-line workers, managers, carers, and commissioners.
