For this assignment you will watch actual footage of a classic research study in psychology: the Bobo doll study conducted by Dr. Albert Bandura (1961/1963). This video is also embedded at the bottom of this page - scroll all the way down.
After watching the brief research clip, answer the following questions about the design of the study conducted by Dr. Bandura.
1) What was Dr. Bandura's hypothesis?
2) What type of research study did Dr. Bandura conduct: experimental, survey, or case study? How do you know?
3) How did Dr. Bandura structure his study? Please provide a *detailed* response explaining his research design, including the independent and dependent variables and other controls, if used.
4) Is this study one that can determine causality? Why or why not? What are the broader implications of this study if causality can be concluded? In other words, what is the take-away message from Dr. Bandura's research and who should listen to this message? (Hint: see the supplemental reading at the bottom of this week's folder if you're struggling with this question!)
5) Imagine you wanted to conduct a different type of study... How could you change this study so that you have a correlation? How could you change this study so that is a longitudinal study that can determine causality?
