Question Number 405
A research study recruits only individuals with extremely low social skills on a certain measure. After employing an intervention, the researchers find that many of the study subjects scored at or close to the mean. Which of the following is the most likely explanation for these results?
Statistical Regression- Internal validity refers to the degree to which external influences have been controlled. There are many threats to internal validity, including statistical regression. This can occur when subjects are recruited for scoring very high or very low on certain measures. - Due to statistical regression, researchers would expect these subjects' scores to be closer to the mean even without intervention, so this should be carefully controlled to ensure results are not attributed completely to the intervention.
