Answer the following questions in terms of the basic design that you produced for the exercise in Chapter 9 to investigate the effect of unemployment on crime. Can you think of reasons for breaking down the independent variable of unemployment into more than two conditions? If you can, what would these other conditions be? Are there ways in which you think participants may be affected by the manipulation of unemployment which are not part of unemployment itself? In other words, are there demand-type characteristics which may affect how participants behave? If there are, how would you test or control these? Which conditions would you compare and what would your predictions be about the differences between them? Is there more than one way in which you can operationalise crime? If there is, would you want to include these as additional measures of crime? Are there any subject or other independent variables that you think are worth including? If there are, would you expect any of these to interact with the independent variable of unemployment?
