Reading and Resources
Required Resources

Additional Support (Optional)
Websites: SNHU Library Guides
Review these resources as necessary:
Module Six focused on various data collection methods and the effect those methods have on our decisions. In Module Seven, you will review research ethics and methods to ensure research validity.
Once data is collected using one of the methods described in Module Six, a criminal justice professional analyzes the data, which ultimately produces the findings. Whether those findings are valid depends heavily on reducing threats. Some threats to valid research are outlined below.
- Researcher bias is apparent when researchers directly influence the sample to produce the findings they find favorable.
- Improper sampling occurs when the sample is not actually representative of the larger population.
- Dishonesty can occur within the research experiment.
- Skewed measurement techniques are techniques that measure a sample inaccurately.
- Improper disclosure is dishonesty in the researcher-subject relationship, which could result in the subjects being (physiologically or physically) harmed.
- Extraneous and temporal effects are effects that weigh heavily on the results of research but are oddities and not the norm.
The threats above may be unconscious acts that can be avoided by using the proper sampling and data collection methods discussed in these modules.
Instructions
