In Both Sets Of Experiments, All Participants Experienced

In order to establish a more conclusive rate of effectiveness, the study would need to

In experiment 1, participants were instructed to press a key to determine if the stimulus was red, blue, yellow, or green. On the second half of the experiment, the stimulus appeared in grey with only one colored letter which was positioned randomly. Error rates for the experiment were below 2.5% for each condition, which is quite low. Experiment 2 was the same as experiment 1 except that there were 114 data collections instead of 288 and there were 36 practice trials instead of 72. According to experiment 1 and 2 it is suggested that the effect of

Before performing part D of the experiment, why was it necessary to establish a baseline?

Controls- The control in this experiment was very important because if it was not contained, then the data would have been faulty. It was very difficult to keep

The results were intriguing as there were large individual differences or variation in responses. However nonetheless what was evident was that 25 percent of participants remained independent throughout the trials, another 50 percent conformed to the erroneous majority in 6 or more trials and another 5 percent conformed on all 12 trials. Therefore the average conformity rate was 33 percent.

A total of 59 participants took part in this experiment. They were split into two independent experimental groups, one being the control group, and the other the experimental group. There were 30 participants in the control group, and 29 participants in the experimental group. The male to female ratio was fairly equal with

In a laboratory study of sleep deprivation, researchers employed a variety of techniques to keep

They were 67 participants in study 1 and they were students from the Princeton University subject pool, there was an equal amount of men and women in the study and 1 unknown. Also, 2 of the participants were excluded from the study, 1 because he was already exposed to the experiment material and the other

The NeuroSolutions Infinity, a product of Neurodimensions Inc. of Florida (2005), the SPSS software package (SPSS 17.0), IBM SPSS Modeler (IBM SPSS 21.0) and the STATA (STATA 12.0) (http://www.stata.com), the most widely usable software were utilized to develop non–parametric SVM

The subjects of the experimental study performed were 14 firefighters who were attendees at the Fire Academy. They were all volunteers and met the requirements to be subjects, including having no medical issues that could affect or be affected by the test and being in good physical health with no injuries. Each subject was cleared by physicians to be participants in the experiment and all agreed for information about the study to be released.

- The use of a scientific control groups is important because it can segregate the effect of

The more times an experiment is done, the more reliable the answer becomes. Therefore, three replications are done in order to reduce the error.

The trials for each of the six conditions were presented in a random order. The experimenter controlled for differences among participants by having them set their own equiluminant point for the cue stimuli and eliminated luminance differences by embedding the stimuli in a random luminance noise. The experimenter also controlled for outliers by eliminating response

To detect a small experimental effect in the bogus study, for example, we would have had to increase the sample size from 81 to 1,206, or 134 subjects

An ambiguous figure is a picture of a subject which the viewer may see as either of two different subjects or as the same subject from either of two different viewpoints depending on how the total configuration is interpreted. The aim of the experiment is to replicate the study of perception conducted by Bugelski and Alampay who investigated the importance of expectation in the perceptual set, they found that those who had previously been shown images of animals were more likely to see the stimulus as being a rat because they had preconceived expectations. The hypothesis is that there will be a difference of perception depending on which images were seen by the participants. Independent variable refers to what is being manipulated or changed in the experiment in this case the IV would be the different types of images being shown to participants. The dependant variable is what has been measured this would be how the participants perceive the ambiguous figure either a rat or
