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...

Criticisms of the Evolutionary Perspective

302
In a study where individuals posing as strangers offered compliments and proposed casual sex to students, the responses differed significantly based on gender. Not a single woman accepted the proposal, while 70% of the men agreed. This outcome provides a useful scenario to explore through the lens of evolutionary psychology and social learning theory, highlighting the diverse perspectives on human sexual behaviors.
Evolutionary psychology provides one explanation for these findings, suggesting...

Factors Influencing Attraction I: Proximity

218
Proximity plays a fundamental role in shaping interpersonal attraction by increasing opportunities for interaction and fostering familiarity. Research consistently demonstrates that individuals are more likely to form social bonds with those who are physically closer to them, whether in residential settings, workplaces, or educational institutions. This effect is largely driven by the increased frequency of encounters, which facilitates the development of friendships and romantic...

Naturalistic Observations

16.9K
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...

Surveys

16.6K
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.

Area of Science:

  • Social Sciences
  • Criminology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Street-intercept interviews are standard for nightlife research.
  • Online recruitment offers a resource-efficient alternative, crucial for pilot studies.
  • Understanding recruitment method impact on nightlife research outcomes is vital.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare nightlife research outcome variables across different recruitment methods.
  • To investigate variations in reported harassment and alcohol consumption based on data collection.
  • To identify potential biases in online versus in-person sampling.

Main Methods:

  • Study 1: Compared Qualtrics panel and social media samples (N=940) on alcohol use, pre-drinking, and past 12-month aggression/harassment.
  • Study 2: Compared Qualtrics panel and street-intercept samples (N=223) on past 3-month harassment.
  • Analyses stratified by gender to explore sex-based differences in reporting.

Main Results:

  • Female social media users reported more sexual harassment than female panel users (Study 1).
  • Female street-interview participants reported more sexual and physical harassment than female panel users (Study 2).
  • No significant differences in harassment reporting were found for male participants across methods.

Conclusions:

  • Data collection methodology significantly influences reported nightlife harms, particularly for women.
  • Online panels may lead to underreporting of sexual and physical harassment experienced by women.
  • Researchers must consider recruitment method implications for accurate nightlife harm assessment.
