Researchers Kaitlin Woolley and Ayelet Fishbach (2019) told participants that they were participating in a study on the effects of Hunger. Pairs of participants were told to eat a snack of salsa and chips with a stranger, after which they engaged in a negotiation task. After which, they engaged in a negotation task. Half of the participant-pairs were randomly assigned to share a plate of salsa and chips, and the other half of participant-pairs were randomly assigned to eat their own individual servings. More specifically, the researchers reported that "participants were run in pairs of strangers. We preregistered the study and collected data from 200 undergraduate and graduate students outside a campus cafe (107 female; M=23.57 years, SD=8.80)"
What did the researchers mean when they said they "preregistered the study"?
a. They registered the study on a website so that students could signup to participate
b. They recorded their research design and analysis plan before conducting the…

- Sleep apnea is a disorder characterized by pauses in breathing during sleep. Children who suffer from untreated sleep apnea often have behavior problems, including hyperactivity, inattention, and aggression. A common treatment for pediatric sleep apnea is the surgical removal of enlarged tonsils and adenoids that are obstructing the airways. Suppose researchers at a sleep clinic are interested in the effect of surgical treatment for pediatric sleep apnea on aggressive behavior. They study 11 children without sleep apnea, 11 children with untreated sleep apnea, and 11 children who have been surgically treated for sleep apnea. Aggression is measured using the Conners Rating Scales. The sample means and sums of squares of the scores for each of the three groups are presented in the following table.

Since the company has complete reports of on-the-job accidents, she draws a sample of names of workers who were involved in accidents during the last year. A similar sample from among workers who had no reported accidents in the last year is drawn. She interviews members of both groups to determine if they are smokers or not.

- Cranberry juice It’s common folk wisdom that drinkingcranberry juice can help prevent urinary tract infections inwomen. In 2001 the British Medical Journal reported theresults of a Finnish study in which three groups of50 women were monitored for these infections over 6months. One group drank cranberry juice daily, another group drank a lactobacillus drink, and the third drank nei-ther of those beverages, serving as a control group. In the control group, 18 women developed at least one infection,compared to 20 of those who consumed the lactobacillusdrink and only 8 of those who drank cranberry juice. Doesthis study provide supporting evidence for the value ofcranberry juice in warding off urinary tract infections?a) Is this a survey, a retrospective study, a prospectivestudy, or an experiment?

Is this an example of a survey research design?arrow_forwardA market-research group specializes in providing assessments of the prospects of sites for new children’s toy stores in shopping centers. The group assesses prospects as good, fair, or poor. The records of assessments made by this group were examined, and it was found that for all stores that had annual sales over $1,000,000, the assessments were good for 70%, fair for 20%, and poor for 10%. For all stores that turned out to be unsuccessful, the assessments were good for 20%, fair for 30%, and poor for 50%. It is known that 60% of new clothing stores are successful and 40% are unsuccessful.a. For a randomly chosen store, what is the probability that prospects will be assessed as good?b. If prospects for a store are assessed as good, what is the probability that it will be successful?c. Are the events “prospects assessed as good” and “store is successful” statistically independent?d.

- Brainstorm and briefly describe three scenarios for which a quasi-experimental design would be appropriate?arrow_forwardIn studies examining the effect of humor on interpersonal attractions, McGee and Shevlin (2009) found that an individual’s sense of humor had a significant effect on how the individual was perceived by others. In one part of the study, female college students were given brief descriptions of a potential romantic partner. The fictitious male was described positively as being single and ambitious and having good job prospects. For one group of participants, the description also said that he had a great sense of humor. For another group, it said that he has no sense of humor. After reading the description, each participant was asked to rate the attractiveness of the man on a seven-point scale from 1 (very unattractive) to 7 (very attractive). A score of 4 indicates a neutral rating. The females who read the “great sense of humor” description gave the potential partner an average attractiveness score of M = 4.53 with a standard deviation of s = 1.04.

Cognitive Performance Contact Athletes Non-Contact Athletes n1 = 8 n2 = 8 M1 = 6 M2 = 9 s2 = 8 s2 = 6.23 Are the test scores significantly lower for the contact sport athletes than for the non-contact athletes?
