Demand Characteristics

Demand characteristics occur when the participants try to make sense of the research and act accordingly to support the aim of the research. Demand characteristics are a issue, as the participants may behave in a way to support the hypothesis, making the results less valid. Conversely, the participant may deliberately try to disrupt the results, a phenomenon known as the ‘screw-you’ effect.
