Take the 2-minute tour ×  What is a typical approach to
conducting a survey-based psychological experiment?  There seems
to be a host of issues involved; some that seem particularly
important are:    • the appropriate design of the experiment,
• ethical approval,   • securing funding.  There seems to be a
number of books written about the topic, and it's hard to know
where to begin. I'm largely after an outline of what one needs
to know in order to go from nothing to having successfully
conducted a survey-based experiment.   In a previous question, I
received an answer that suggested conducting a survey-based
experiment. Assuming (once I do a thorough literature review) I
don't find any other answer to the question, I'd be interested
in implementing the experiment (partly to answer the question
itself, and partly for professional development). I'm a
scientist, but not in a discipline where surveys would typically
arise. As such, I have no experience in conducting a survey-
based experiment.  share|improve th
