Your HYPOTHESES determine what TYPES OF DATA you will COLLECT

Page 30: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Task 2

tasksheet, page 3

Page 31: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Research Questions & Hypotheses

Page 32: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Research question

frames a problem to be addressed & resolved in research

Page 33: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Hypothesis

A prediction about a relationship between

Two (or more) variables

Page 34: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

A solid hypothesis is…

...TESTABLE

confirm or falsify the hypothesis

…SUPPORTABLE

provide empirical evidence to confirm/falsify the hypothesis

…GROUNDED

ground your hypothesis in theory/previous research

…RELEVANT

fill a gap in the research, resolve inconsistency, etc.

Page 35: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Special case…

…NULL HYPOTHESIS - Nº

No relationship between the variables

It is always there

fail to reject Nº = cannot draw conclusions from your research

Task 3

tasksheet, page 4

Page 37: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Variables

Page 38: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

A variable is…?

…something that changes or varies

e.g. among people (IQ, gender, etc.)

Page 39: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Independent variable

the aspect you manipulate to influence the end results

e.g. instruction, types of stimuli, types of participants

priming, etc.

What is the cause of a given phenomenon?

the cause = independent variable

Page 40: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Dependent variable

the end result (hard data)

e.g. RTs, ACC, ER, ERPs, etc.

e.g. the amount of time you choose to spend doing grammar exercises determines your final score on the PNJA exam in June ;)

Page 41: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

summing up

HYPOTHESIS: Positive sentence context makes processing of positive words faster and more accurate.

PREDICTION: faster & more accurate processing of ”+” WORDS in ”+” SENTENCE context.

INDEPENDENT VARIABLE: sentence context, word valence.

DEPENDENT VARIABLE: RTs, ACC/ER

TYPE OF RELATIONSHIP: ”+” SENTENCE causes smaller RTs and greater ACC in responses to ”+”WORDS.

Page 43: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Experimental Design

Page 44: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

The simple experiment

1. Define hypothesis

2. Specify and define variables.

3. Participants: experimental vs. control groups.

4. Random assignment of participants to groups

5. Collect dependent variable

6. No significant result – no effect, no interpretation

if you cannot randomly assign participants to your different groups, you cannot do a simple

experiment

Page 45: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

2 x 2 design

2 independent variables & 2 levels of each variable

(positive; negative) x (congruent; incongruent)

Validity

Internal

External

Ecological

Page 48: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Internal validity

A B

Your data reflects the reality under investigation:

independent variables and their manipulation

Page 49: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Threats to internal validity

1. Testing: pre-tests may cause biases

2. Instrumentation: pre- and post-tests must match

3. Regression: biased participant selection

4. Confounding variable:

not properly controlled, manipulated or unnoticed

Page 50: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

External validity

Results can be generalized to the wider population

Page 51: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Threats to external validity

1. Participant selection: atypical population sample

2. Setting: the context

3. History: a specific historical context

4. Construct effect: a particular construct exists in one group but not in others

Page 52: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Ecological validity

Experiment conducted in an environment

& in circumstances most similar to or exact to a real-life

situation

Page 53: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Reliability

A reliable experiment can be reliably replicated yielding the same results

Page 54: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Task 5

tasksheet, page 5

Page 55: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Errors & biases

Page 56: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Errors

Murphy’s law: Anything that can go wrong will go wrong

Type 1 error:

You’ve done everything right. Got a significant result. The result is statistically a chance accident.

Type 2 error: You’ve done everything right. DID NOT GET A SIGNIFICANT RESULT. The lack of result is statistically a chance accident.

Page 57: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Demons you can fight:Random errors & biases

Everything done right.

No risk of Type1 or Type 2 error…

Still…the result is WRONG

The result is a chance accident due to a randomly occuring external factor…

Page 58: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

This is why you need reliable and replicable experiments!

Page 59: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Solution?

Fight! Increase the number of participants

(random error tends to balance out to zero)!

Biases

2 major offenders, 1 major circumstance

Page 61: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Offender 1

Researcher:

”I’m going to get what I expect & publish it in SCIENCE!”

“It is remarkable how often the first interpretations of new evidence have confirmed the preconceptions of its discoverer."

(John Reader. 2011. Missing Links. Oxford University Press)

Page 62: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Offender 2

Participant A:

”I’ll make you look good/bad!” (obeying demand characteristics)

Participant B:

”I’ll make myself look good!” (social desirability bias)

Page 63: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Non-mitigating Circumstance 1

Day 1:

You’re taking part in an important experiment…

Day 2:

So yeah… this… this thing yeah it’s for my thesis and um…

Original Replication

Point of origin Theory Existing research

ApproachTheory-based, practically creative

Data-driven, practically repetitive

MethodsSelect from all available and viable

Only choose the one used in the study being replicated

Modifications Compromise validityIncrease validity provided that control group is included!

Stimuli & Participantselection

Page 71: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Participants

Ideal case:

a large randomly selected sample from a homogenous population.

Typical case for MA/BA: a minimally valid, inherently somewhat biased sample

Remedy:

a careful selection of hypothesis, inclusion of relevant control pre- and post-tests.

Page 72: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

StimuliA happy case:

stimuli exist, have been validated in a thorough and correct validation procedure, and they are available.

An unhappy reality:

a norming study is an absolute, inevitable MUST.

An unhappier reality still: you must create, validate, and norm your own stimuli.

Remedy:

Meta-analyses of existing research (more later), start early.

Ethical considerations

Page 76: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Human Subject Research(HSR)

Linguistic research is a case of HSR.

Seek permissions to proceed with Internal Review Boards (IRBs) and Ethical Committees.

PhD and senior staff:

strongly advised to take a basic HSR course. E.g. CITI course (http://www.citiprogram.org)

Page 77: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Rule of thumb

Don’t hurt people. Emotionally, psychologically, physically.

Tools & Resources

Page 79: EMiL Experimental Methods in Linguistics Halszka Bąk & Rafał Jończyk Faculty of English, Adam Mickiewicz University yellow black worp vs warp.

Meta-analytical tables

ask a single study design question, and search through the top-cited papers in the field to see how others have “done it”.

Example:

Question: How many participants should I use?

Literature: Find top-cited 30-50 papers from the past 10 years on the subject.

Table: Bibliography note, participants number, relevant participant variables.

What to do: abstract > introduction (skim) > methods > participants

Result: Overview of the typical number and type of participant in your discipline.
