EXTERNAL VALIDITY: REPLICATION AND
GENERALIZATION

In the Discussion for this week, you evaluated possible confounding variables that could threaten
the internal validity of a study. For the Assignment, you will turn your attention to methods that
support the external validity of studies. You first learned about external validity in Chapter 4, which
refers to the extent to which a study’s findings can accurately be generalized to other populations
and settings. When the results of a research study are generalizable to additional populations and
settings, the study demonstrates external validity.

Replications of studies are essential to demonstrate both generalization and external validity. This
week, you will learn about two types of replication procedures—exact replication and conceptual
replication—and you will develop original examples of these two replication procedures with the goal
of demonstrating generalization and external validity.

RESOURCES

To prepare:

Read Chapter 14.
Think of an original experimental study (i.e., do not use examples from the textbook or
found elsewhere) and develop a research question, hypothesis, and prediction.
Consider how other researchers interested in your topic would conduct an exact replication
and a conceptual replication of your study idea (i.e.: What elements would be the same and
which would be different?) and how the replications would be carried out.
Consider how the study idea could be carried out with another population and in another
setting to demonstrate the concepts of generalization and external validity.

Submit a 2-page paper that responds to the following:

For the original experimental study idea you created provide the following:
Research question
Hypothesis and prediction
Independent and dependent variables
Operational definitions for each variable

Be sure to review the Learning Resources before completing this activity.

Review previous chapters if you need to (e.g., Chapter 2 on
creating research questions and hypotheses, IV/DV, operational
definitions)

research (15th ed.). McGraw Hill.

Next,

Explain what another researcher would need to know and do to conduct an exact replication
of your study idea (i.e.: What elements would be the same and which would be different?).
Explain how a different researcher could conduct a conceptual replication of your original
study and provide an example of how the replication would be carried out.
Propose how your initial experimental study idea could be conducted with a different
population or in a different setting to demonstrate generalization.
Applying your study idea, make the connection in your own words to explain how
replications relate to the concepts of generalization and external validity.

Note: Support your responses within your Assignment with evidence from the assigned
Learning Resources. Provide a reference list for resources you used for this Assignment. Use
APA style for in-text citations and references.

Before submitting your final assignment, you can check your draft for authenticity. To check
