Wikify date September 2010 Manipulation check is a term in experimental research in the social sciences which refers to certain kinds of secondary evaluations of an experiment. Overview In experiments, an experimenter manipulates some aspect of a process or task and randomly assigns subjects to different levels of the manipulation experimental conditions . The experimenter then observes whether variation in the manipulated variables cause differences in the dependent variable. Manipulation checks are separate measured variables that show what the manipulated variables concurrently affect besides the dependent variable of interest . Manipulations are NOT intended to verify that the manipulated factor caused variation in the dependent variable. Random assignment, manipulation before measurement of the dependent variable, and statistical tests of effect of the manipulated variable on the dependent variable verify this. Thus, a failed manipulation check does not refute that the manipulation caused variation in the dependent variable. In contrast, a successful manipulation check can help an experimenter rule out reasons why a manipulation may have failed to influence an independent variable. When a manipulation creates significant differences between experimental conditions in both 1 the dependent variable and 2 the measured manipulation check variable, the interpretation is that 1 the manipulation causes variation in the dependent variable the effect and 2 the manipulation also explains variation in some other, more theoretically obvious measured variable that it is expected to concurrently influence, which assists in interpreting the cause i.e., it only help interpret the cause it is not necessary to affirm that the cause causes an effect .

Intro missing date August 2008 Context date August 2008 nofootnotes date May 2008 Definition The major competing explanations of the evolution of eusociality are parental manipulation and kin selection . Parental manipulation has been proposed by Alexander 1974 and Michener and Brothers 1974 and accounts for the evolution of altruism by selection on parents. Parents which increase their total output of fertile offspring by first producing sterile helpers, that aid them in raising subsequent broods, will be fitter than parents which do not do this, and so will have selective advantage. Formula The conditions for the evolution of eusociality with diploid workers in haplodiploid populations were determined using computer simulations. Parental manipulation, in which alleles act on mothers to force their daughters to become workers, and kin selection, in which the alleles act directly on daughters to become altruists, were modeled. Workers altruists were completely sterile, and raised siblings of both sexes. A dominant or recessive parental manipulation allele was selected for if K 0.5, where K is the benefit cost ratio, expressed as the ratio of the number of siblings raised by a worker to the number of offspring she would have raised if selfish. The rate of change of gene frequency increased with increasing family size and with an increasingly female biased sex ratio. When K 1, kin selection alleles were selected against if dominant, slightly against if co dominant, and for if recessive. This is because r , the ratio relatedness to siblings relatedness to offspring , changes from unity when genotype frequencies diverge from Hardy Weinberg proportions, with r 1 for a recessive allele and r 1 for a codominant or dominant allele. The value of r varies with gene frequency, p, and approaches one when p is near zero or one. Biasing the sex ratio towards females or increasing family size increases the rate of change of p irrespective of its direction. When K 1.06, even a domi ... more details

Direct manipulation is a simplified variation of graphic animation which involves the frame by frame altering erasing or adding to a single drawing or graphic image, while taking a frame of film or video as each small change is made, as close as the stop motion process gets to simply animating a series of drawings, but without actually changing to completely separate drawings or graphics for each frame of film, a more traditional process that most people associate with the generic animation term.
