The Effects of Within-Group and Between-Group Methodologies in the Study of Perceptions of Infant Crying.
Zeskind, Philip Sanford; Huntington, Lee
Child Development, v55 n4 p1658-65 Aug 1984
Four groups of 18 adult listeners rated the tape-recorded cries of low- and high-risk infants on four Likert-type scale items. Results indicate that within-group methods of cry presentation accentuate the perceptual distance among cry types and may actually create many reliable differences that would not be found in between-group comparisons.
