This document provides a study guide for a midterm exam covering research methods. It lists key concepts to understand from readings and lectures. These include: [1] internal and external validity and threats that must be addressed; [2] types of validity in measurement; [3] criteria for inferring causality; [4] requirements of single subject designs; [5] strengths and weaknesses of surveys; [6] levels of measurement and properties; [7] randomization vs random sampling; and [8] principles of visual analysis and ABAB designs. The guide emphasizes understanding concepts over memorizing terminology to perform well on the exam.
