Longitudinal Research

12.3K
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...

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.

Ethics in Research

Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.

Group Design02:01

Group Design

9.5K
The most basic experimental design involves two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The two groups are designed to be the same except for one difference— experimental manipulation. The experimental group gets the experimental manipulation—that is, the treatment or variable being tested—and the control group does not. Since experimental manipulation is the only difference between the experimental and control groups, we can be sure that any differences between...

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

91.1K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Aging Research
  • STEM Education

Background:

  • The South Carolina-Advancing Diversity in Aging Research (SC-ADAR) program aimed to increase underrepresented minority (URM) students in aging-focused STEM graduate programs.
  • Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in South Carolina partnered with the University of South Carolina for this initiative.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate lessons learned from the first five years of the SC-ADAR program.
  • To describe iterative program changes implemented to improve student success in pursuing graduate studies in aging research.

Main Methods:

  • A 24-month research education program included two consecutive summers of mentored research training in a University of South Carolina faculty laboratory.
  • Students participated in coursework on the biology of aging and social gerontology.
  • Workshops were provided for academic skills, work-life management, reflective experiences, and graduate school transition support.

Main Results:

  • The program provided a comprehensive research training approach for URM undergraduates.
  • Iterative program modifications were made based on ongoing evaluation and identified student needs.
  • Lessons learned were incorporated into the existing SC-ADAR program structure.

Conclusions:

  • The SC-ADAR program effectively provided research training and support for URM students interested in aging research.
  • Continuous program evaluation and adaptation are crucial for enhancing the success of diversity initiatives in STEM.
  • The program serves as a model for preparing URM students for graduate studies in aging-related fields.
