Surveys

16.5K
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.

Types of Surveys

302
Surveys are essential for marking property boundaries near water bodies. Different types of surveys are defined, each with its own function. Land surveys mark the property boundaries, while route surveys determine the position of properties on nearby highways. Topographic surveys create maps by capturing the three-dimensional features of the land. Hydrographic surveys focus on the shapes of underwater areas and the movement of streams through the properties. Mine surveys determine the relative...

Self-Report Tests of Personality01:22

Self-Report Tests of Personality

715
Self-report inventories are objective personality assessments that use multiple-choice items or numbered scales, typically ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). They are often called Likert scales after Rensis Likert. These inventories are widely used due to their ease of administration and cost-effectiveness. One of the most prominent examples is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), initially developed in the 1940s to assess abnormal personality traits.

Cross-Sectional Research01:50

Cross-Sectional Research

12.3K
In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time. If they were interested in people's dietary habits, the researcher might directly compare different groups of people by age. Instead of following a group of people for 20 years to see how their dietary habits changed from decade to decade, the researcher would study a group of 20-year-old individuals and compare them to a group of 30-year-old individuals and a group of 40-year-old...

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

15.3K
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

Longitudinal Research02:20

Longitudinal Research

13.0K
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry and Psychology
  • Addiction Research

Background:

  • Alcoholism typology research aims to classify individuals based on diverse factors.
  • Understanding subtypes is crucial for targeted interventions and treatment strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review commonly utilized personality questionnaires in alcoholism typology research.
  • To provide examples of questions from these instruments.

Main Methods:

  • Review of five prominent alcoholism typology questionnaires.
  • Inclusion of sample questions from each reviewed instrument.

Main Results:

  • The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) is a frequently used tool.
  • Other reviewed questionnaires include the MacAndrew Alcoholism Scale, Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), Tridimensional Personality Questionnaire (TPQ), and Connecticut Typology Questionnaire (CTQ).

Conclusions:

  • Personality questionnaires are essential tools for categorizing alcoholism subtypes.
  • The reviewed instruments aid in assessing genetic risk, drinking patterns, and personal characteristics.
