| Summary, etc |
"Experimental psychology was born with the study of sensory processes; it grow at aditis, al topies, us, a perception, reaction the inditiona course in experimental psychology was a course the content of which was accidentally defined by those lines of investigation followed by early experimenters in those fields. But times change, and so does experimental psychology. The present trend is to define experimental psychology not in terms of specific content areas, but rather as a study of scientific methodology generally, and of the methods of experimentation in par-ticular. There is considerable evidence that this trend is gaining ground rapidly.<br/>This book has been written to meet this trend. His methods no longer confined to but a few areas, the experimental psychologist conducts researches in almost the whole of psychology-clinical, industrial, social, military, and so on. To emphasize this point, we have throughout the book used examples of experiments from many fields, illustrative of many methodological points.<br/>In short, then, the point of departure for this book is the relatively new conception of experimental psychology in terms of methodology, a conception which represents the bringing together of three somewhat distinct aspects of science: experimental methodology, statistics, and philosophy of science. We have attempted to perform a job analysis of experimental psychology, presenting the important techniques that the experimental psychologist uses in his everyday work. Experimental methods are the basis of experimental psychology, of course; the omnipresence of statistical presentations in journals attests the importance of this aspect of experimentation. An understanding of the philosophy of science is important to an understanding of what science is, how the scientific method is used, and particularly of where experimentation fits into the more general framework of scientific methodology." —Preface |
