a mutual relationship or connection between two or more things.

Correlation means association - more precisely it is a measure of the extent to which two variables are related.

If an increase in one variable tends to be associated with an increase in the other then this is known as a positive correlation.

An example would be height and weight. Taller people tend to be heavier.]]> 2017-09-05 14:47:18 UTC https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/184777968 yasmeennassar183 https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/184780098 . Exploring cause and effect

. Independent and dependent variables the process of performing a scientific procedure, especially in a laboratory, to determine something.
Experimental Method.

 An experiment is an investigation in which a hypothesis is scientifically tested. In anexperiment, an independent variable (the cause) is manipulated and the dependent variable (the effect) is measured; any extraneous variables are controlled.

A Closer Look at the Experimental Method in Psychology.
The experimental method involves manipulating one variable to determine if changes in one variable cause changes in another variable.
 This method relies on controlled methods, random assignment and the manipulation of variables to test a hypothesis]]> 2017-09-06 14:18:30 UTC https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/185132418 yasmeennassar183 https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/185133636 A survey is a data collection tool used to gather information about individuals.
Surveys are commonly used in psychology research to collect self-report data from study participants.
A survey may focus on factual information about individuals, or it might aim to obtain the opinions of the survey takers]]> 2017-09-06 14:20:45 UTC https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/185133636 yasmeennassar183 https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/185133769 Without the alarm, you probably would have overslept.
 In this scenario, the alarm had the effect of you waking up at a certain time.
This is what we mean by cause and effect.
 A cause-effect relationship is a relationship in which one event (the cause) makes another event happen (the effect).]]> 2017-09-06 14:21:01 UTC https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/185133769 yasmeennassar183 https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/185134101
The independent variable is the characteristic of a psychology experiment that is manipulated or changed.
For example, in an experiment looking at the effects of studying on test scores, studying would be the independent variable]]> 2017-09-06 14:21:41 UTC https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/185134101 yasmeennassar183 https://padlet.com/yasmeennassar183/5sht6fqho9io/wish/185141115 The perception of a relationship where none exists

The inclination after an event has occurred to see the event as having been predictable,  also known as the knew-it-all-along effect or creeping determinism, is the inclination.
 After an event has occurred, to see the event as having been predictable, despite there having been little or no objective basis for predicting it.
