Internal validity is threatened by:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Demand characteristics refer to cues or clues within a study that give participants an indication of what the researcher is expecting from them. This can lead participants to modify their behavior in ways that do not accurately reflect their true responses. This would threaten the internal validity of the study as it could result in inaccurate or misleading results. The other options, such as the qualifications of the researcher, random assignment of participants, and experimental conditions of the study, can all potentially enhance internal validity.
