Reading the Room: Demand Characteristics in Psychology

Join us as we unpack demand characteristics—the subtle cues in research that nudge participants' behavior. We’ll break down common signals, the roles participants adopt (the good participant, the screw-you, the apprehensive), and why they matter for internal and external validity. We’ll also explore practical strategies scientists use to minimize bias and keep findings trustworthy.
