Got an A on ECE Research Methods

Some notes from the test:

Know the difference between nominal, ratio, interval, etc.
Know internal vs external validity, it came up about 10 times.
Know how the IV relates to ANOVA. For example in a 2x2 ANOVA how many IV are there.

Obviously know the difference between IV and DV, lots of questions that ask you to identify the DV or IV.

Some graphs that ask what the main effect is, I think 2 or 3.

Best bet is to just use Google to search for terms in the study guide. Not that hard of a test but I also took Psychological Statistics w/ lab at my local college two semesters ago and I think that helped a lot.

Also, understand the basics of how a research paper is layed out. For example where the results come and what is usually put in the results.

Hope this helps.
