Asked by Margaret

A researcher strongly believes that physicians tend to show female nurses less attention and respect than they show male nurses. She sets up an experimental study involving observations of health clinics in different conditions. In explaining the study to the physicians and nurses who will participate, what steps should the researcher take to eliminate experimental bias based on both experimenter expectations and participant expectations?
Answered by PsyDAG
Why would the researcher have to explain anything? Why do the providers need to know they are participating in an experiment?
Have video cameras record interactions for specific situations. Have third party observers rate the interactions according to the specified criteria for the situations.
