Researchers investigated factors that influenced how much people like each other based on first meeting.
They were particularly interested in the effects of eye-to-eye contact and smiling. They collected data from
20 participants. Each participant was asked to wait in a small room while the experimenter went next door,
ostensibly to gather the materials needed for the study. While the participant was waiting, a confederate of
the experimenter entered the room and sat in a chair facing the participant, and asked "Are you waiting for
the experiment?". Immediately after asking the question, the confederate smiled at, and/or looked directly
into the eyes of, the participant. This was done in four conditions: for five participants the confederate smiled
and looked into the participant's eye, for five participants the confederate smiled but did not look into the
participant's eye, for five participants the confederate did not smile but did look into the participant's eyes,
and for five…
W. Thomas Boyce, a professor and pediatrician at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, has studied interactions between individual differences in physiology and differences in experience in determining health and well-being. Dr. Boyce found that some children are more sensitive to their environments. They do exceptionally well when the environment is supportive but are much more likely to have mental and physical health problems when the environment has challenges.
You decide to do a similar study, conducting a factorial experiment to test the effectiveness of one environmental factor and one physiological factor on a physical health outcome. As the environmental factor, you choose two levels of stressful life events. As the physiological factor, you choose three levels of immune reactivity. The outcome is number of respiratory illnesses in the previous 12 months, and the research participants are kindergartners.
In an experiment with two factors, A and B ,what is the purpose of doing a multiple comparison if
a. only the Factor A effect is significant?
b. both Factor A and B effects are significant, but the interaction is not?
c. the interaction between A and B is significant?

- What is an experiment?arrow_forwardIn a study of reading comprehension, sixth grade students read a short story about baseball. The students are divided into two groups based on their knowledge of baseball. Within each group, half of the students are high scorers on a test of verbal IQ, while the remaining students are low scorers. She found: Low baseball High baseball Low IQ-V 20 25 High IQ-V 20 30 Which is a correct interpretation of the results? Higher levels of baseball knowledge improves reading comprehension. This effect is weaker for those with high verbal IQs. Higher levels of baseball knowledge improves reading comprehension. This effect is stronger for those with high verbal IQs. The direction of the effect of baseball knowledge changes in direction from participants wit low IQ to participants with high IQ. there are no main effects and no interactions.arrow_forwardThe following data represent the means for each treatment condition in a two-factor experiment.

- Cocaine addiction is hard to break. Addicts need cocaine to feel any pleasure, so perhaps giving them an antidepressant drug will help. An experiment assigned chronic cocaine users to take either an antidepressant drug called desipramine, lithium, or a placebo. Lithium is a standard drug to treat cocaine addiction. A placebo is a dummy drug, used so that the effect of being in the study but not taking any drug can be seen. Here are the results after three years.

The independent variables are gender, income, and the interaction of gender and income. The dependent variable is total help. He wants to know if one or both factors – or the interaction of the two - affects the total amount of help offered. Because he is analyzing two independent variables (gender and income), he used a factorial ANOVA. His results show the main effect of each of the independent variables on the dependent variable (total help) and the interaction effect. The researcher is using a 95% confidence interval which means that he wants to be at least 95% sure that his independent variables affected total help if he rejects the null hypothesis. Below is the data set followed by the results:arrow_forward

The researcher tells them the study is about the effect of exercise on diet and sleep (i.e., deception). She has them monitor their diet, sleep, and attendance for the week prior to beginning the exercise program and then again for week after the program has been underway for 2 weeks. She wants to compare the number of absences reported before the program began to the number of absences after the program began for each participant to find out whether the exercise program had an effect. a. What type of test should be used to analyze her data? i. Z-test ii. Single-sample t-test iii. Independent-measures t-test iv. Repeated-measures t-test b. What would the hypotheses be?arrow_forward
