Question

this refers to the degree to which experimental results generalize to other populations, settings, and times.
○ significance
○ random sampling
○ random assignment
○ external validity
question 24
2.5
larry is flipping a coin. he says, \it has come up heads three times in a row, so its bound to come up tails this time.\ this illustrates
○ correspondence bias
○ conjunction fallacy
○ hindsight bias
○ gamblers fallacy

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

For the first question:

  • Significance relates to statistical confidence in results, not generalization.
  • Random sampling is a method to select participants, not about result generalization.
  • Random assignment allocates participants to groups, not generalization.
  • External validity specifically describes how well experimental results apply to other populations, settings, and times.

For Question 24:

  • Correspondence Bias is about overattributing behavior to personality, not probability misconceptions.
  • Conjunction Fallacy is judging a combined event as more likely than a single one, which is not the case here.
  • Hindsight Bias is believing an event was predictable after it happens, irrelevant to this probability error.
  • Gambler's Fallacy is the false belief that past independent events affect future outcomes, which matches Larry's reasoning about coin flips.

Answer:

First question: D. External validity
Question 24: D. Gambler's Fallacy
