Answer:

d. an approach to gaining knowledge about behavior and mental processes by observation and measurement only

Explanation:

In philosophy, empiricism is a school of psychology that focuses in the way we gain knowledge and it establishes that <u>we can only gain real knowledge by the information we get from our senses and experiences</u>, in other words, empiricism gives importance to the <u>empirical evidence</u> that we gain from our experiences and therefore to the observations and measures we can do (instead of relying on reasoning and what our mind tells us)

Therefore, empiricism is an approach to gaining knowledge about behavior and mental processes by observation and measurement only.

On his mother´s side, his family line descended from Gengis Khan. His first conquests as emir of Ferghana were made in Central Asia, including Samarkand in today´s Uzbekistan, but he lost them because of power intrigues and betrayals. However, his great chance came in India, where he coveted the Delhi Sultanate. He defeated the army of sultan Ibrahim Lodi and took his throne in 1526. This is the beginning of the Mughal Empire.

A researcher is interested in how heart rate and blood pressure are affected by viewing a violent film sequence as opposed to a
Effectus [21]

Answer:

The answers are:

a. dependent

b. independent

c. test

d. control

Explanation:

In scientific research, investigations are done to study whether certain factors change while changing others, and the following terms are associated with  scientific research:

a. dependent variable: These are factors or outcomes that are being investigated in a research experiment, and they are not under the direct control of the researcher. They are factors that vary as a result of other changes made in the process. In our example, the heart rate and blood pressure are proposed to vary with the type of film watched hence these factors are dependent variables.

b. independent variable: Independent variables are variables that are under the direct manipulation of the researcher, and the predetermined variation of these variables cause certain effects on the dependent variables. In our example, the type of film is the independent variable, because the researcher has complete control over the type of film watched.

c. Test group: These are the group of participants/individuals in research, who will potentially be affected by the change in the dependent variable to cause an effect that deviates from the normal. In our example, the group that views the violent film is the test group, because there is a tendency that they might have altered heart rate and blood pressure as a result of the type of film viewed.

d. control group: The control group is the group of individuals whose effects at the end of the experiments will serve as baseline effects, to serve as a means of measuring the magnitude of variation in the test group. These groups serve to eliminate any other effects that might cause similar changes as the factor being investigated in all test participants.
