      Research in the Behavioural Sciences - Chapter 1

      What does the history of this research look like?

      Many people think that psychologists are only concerned with treating people with mental problems. That is partly true, but psychologists also conduct research to find out more about people's behavior and mental processes. People have been explaining human behavior for centuries. Aristotle and Buddha for example systematically asked questions about why people behave in certain ways. In the past, however, explaining human behavior was not done scientifically. The statements that were made were mainly speculative. It was therefore impossible to test the validity of the statements. Consequently the accuracy and correctness of the statements could not be tested either. Declarations were often given on the basis of, for example, religious dogmas. Scientific psychology originated in the last 25 years of the 19th century. Scientists such as Wundt, James, Watson and Hall began to see that psychological issues can be answered using scientific methods that are also used in, for example, biology or physics.

      What types of investigations can be distinguished?

      Researchers distinguish between two types of research that are used for different purposes:

      1. ' Basic research': this type of research is conducted to gain a better understanding of psychological processes. It is not important in this context whether this knowledge can be applied immediately. The primary goal is just to increase knowledge about a psychological process.

      2. ' Applied research': this type of research is carried out to find solutions to specific problems instead of increasing our general knowledge about certain processes. For example, sometimes psychologists are hired to detect and resolve problems in the workplace. In this context research is a matter of understanding and eliminating problems.

      3. In addition to these types of research, some scientists also speak of a third type of research, namely 'evaluation research' (also known as 'program evaluation' ). This type of research is aimed at understanding the effects of programs on behavior using scientific research methods.
        In this context, think of new school programs that are being applied. It is important to investigate to what extent these programs are effective.

      What is Leary's book Introduction to Behavioral Research Methods about?

      • The book Introduction to Behavioral Research Methods is a widely used book in studies within the field of human and behavioural sciences. The book was specially written for student use.
      • The book focuses on the four main approaches to behavioral research; namely descriptive research, correlational research, experimental research and quasi-experimental research. The book explains how to conduct these methods and how to analyse the results. The book also examines the ethical issues that may arise during research into human behavior.

      What are the main differences between the 6th and 7th editions?

      Various updates were made in the 7th edition, including:

      • The subject of 'replicating research' is discussed in more detail.
      • The difference between reflective and formative measurements is explained in more detail.
      • Information has been added about doing research via the Internet, in view of the fact that the use of telephones with Internet connection has increased enormously in recent years.
      • The disadvantages and shortcomings of the traditional 0-hypothesis significance test are discussed further. Alternative methods for statistical inference are also discussed, including with regard to confidence intervals and effect sizes.
      • The order of topics dealt with within Chapters 11 and 12 has changed.
      • Information has been added about the safety of research via computers and the confidentiality of data.
      • Given the major fraud cases that have played a role since the last edition, information has also been added on this subject.
      • A new topic has been added, namely "ethical issues when analyzing research data and reporting the results".
