Descriptive research methods are nonexperimental methods that are used to acquire information about a phenomenon or to describe the relationship between two or more phenomena. Nonexperimental methods are different from experimental methods in that they do not involve the manipulation of variables or the modification of the situation under investigation. Explain the purpose of correlational research and develop three research examples of when a correlational study would be required. Pertaining to the examples you provided, what type of information would the data/results provide and what would the proposed strength of the associations be? Discuss some potential third variables that could be responsible for the relationships between the variables and how those could be threats to internal validity. Post should be at least 300 words.

While true experiments contain the highest degree of control, they are not always possible in some situations. Quasi-experiments are similar to experiments in that they include some type of manipulation to compare two or more conditions; however, they do not have complete control over the variables in a study. Thus, they do not meet all of the conditions required for an experiment. Select one of the quasi-experimental designs discussed in the chapter and propose your own study that would use that design. Explain why that design is necessary over an experimental design. With respect to your proposed study, discuss some of the potential threats to validity and how those may impact the overall results. How could you change your proposed study to make it a true experimental design? Post should be at least 300 words.

Ever since NASA was established in 1956, humans have been looking for life beyond Earth. The effort in looking for life elsewhere in our solar system involves looking for the presence of water. Why do scientists look for water when looking for life? What are the properties of water that are important for sustaining life? Could there be life on other planets without water?

Abolitionists supported slave narratives for obvious reasons, but how can we know the formerly enslaved were writing the truth? After all, slaveholders believed slaves to be lesser humans whose emotions and intellect were not fully developed; they couldnt love or grieve in the way Whites did. Plantation owners believed slaves were dependent on owners for shelter and food. So, how did language of slave narratives change that perception? And, how do we know what happened to people, really did happen? Check the list summarized from an article by Charles Nichols for The Phylon Quarterly. Compare that list with the excerpt youve assigned to read to decide i
