Meuss & Raaijmakers Evaluation

Participants were given full information about the design and purpose of the experiment
1. and were debriefed a second time by mail a year later and again asked to fill out a questionnaire about the experiment
In neither, debriefing were any indications seen that the subjects had suffered any serious negative effects from their participation
1. This enhances the ethical validity of the experiment and demonstrates how participants were not harmed
There is validity in that the setting is a real university and the task is a job application which is a real life task
The study followed a standardised procedure which meants each participant recieved the same experienc and negative comments
1. This means that it can be repeated and tested for reliabilty
The sample usd was a volunteer sample which means the participants may have been more motivated to do well
There is lack of validity in that the situation is artificial in a lab setting
1. and the participants taking part in a study would not normally be asked to give stress comments
Participants were decieved as they thought the study was on stress and performance not obedience
1. and that the applicants were real when in fact they were just actors
