A researcher is interested in studying the effects of altitude on cognitive performance (e.g., perception, memory, problem solving, etc.). The researcher finds a group of experienced mountain climbers (n = 10) who volunteer to participate in the study. All of the climbers are tested at three different altitudes—at sea level (in the researchers’ laboratory at the University of California, San Diego), at the base camp (9,000 feet above sea level), and at 23,000 feet above sea level (at the peak of Mt. Denali in Alaska). At each location, the climbers perform a memory task (remember a list of 16 non-words like “biv”), and the accuracy of their memory is recorded (i.e., # of correctly recalled words).
a. pls name the independent variable, dependent variable, levels of the IV, and the type of experiment design of this study (i.e., b/w- or w/i-subject design )
b. on what level of measurement is accuracy of memory assessed? (i.e., is it on nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio?)
