1. Professor Brown has a theory. She thinks that children who are sexually abused in childhood are more likely to be raped in adulthood. Furthermore, she believes that counseling may reduce the likelihood that childhood sexual abuse victims will be raped later in life. Draw a diagram depicting Professor Brown's theoretical model showing how she believes the variables are related (e.g., use lines and arrows to show relations among variables). Use this diagrammed model to answer the following: a) Describe a main effect hypothesis from this model. b) Describe a mediational hypothesis from this model. c) Give an example of an independent variable in this model. d) Give an example of a dependent variable in this model. e) What is the mediating or intervening variable in this model? f) Define and give an example of what a spurious relationship would be using this model. g) Describe the major steps (labeling each step clearly) in the research process that Professor Brown would need to use to conduct a research project to empirically test her theoretical model. 1.
