This research process guide covers planning, designing, analyzing, and reporting experiments addressing the general issues in experimental design. It explores factors affecting performance in repeated Blindfolded Walking Tasks, including perceptual-motor adaptation, time-dependent factors, fatigue, familiarity with the task, and learning strategies.

Research process • planning • designing • analysing • reporting
General Issue in Exp Design • An exp is a way of establishing causal relations • An experiment cause something to vary • It does this independently of anything else • Concept • Independent and dependent variable • Reliability and validity • Experimental control • Variables Randomized • Variables held constant • Confounded variable • Problem of sampling • Problem of experimental design
Factors that affecting performance in repeated BWT • Perceptual motor adaptation • Motor adaptation (no movement control) • Time dependent factors • fatigue • familiarity with walking walk blindfolded (confidence) • familiarity with the task • Strategy (counting, 2nd task) • Learning
