PSY-452 CLC: Exercise# 3 Between-Subjects Designs Instructions
Psychology students need to learn how to look at each factor within a study and the interaction between those factors. This assignment will assist students in learning how to understand this concept:
1) For this assignment, you will test the following hypotheses:
a) Frequent users of Facebook will have a significantly different level of self-esteem than infrequent users of Facebook.
i) Definition of Frequent users- spend 2 hours a day on Facebook. ii) Definition of Infrequent users- spend less than 2 hours a day on Facebook.
2) Module 2: Part I – Survey
a) Each team member will access and complete the “Facebook Survey.” Save the survey results for the next part …show more content…
4) Module 6: Final Study
a) Part III –T-Test
i) As a team, you will use data you compiled (means from the average scores- self-esteem questions only) from the surveys to calculate a T-test on the two groups:
(1) Frequent users of Facebook- separate mean
(2) Infrequent users of Facebook. – separate mean
b) Part IV – F-Ratio
i) Use the data you compiled from the surveys to calculate an F- ratio on the 4 groups (4 means to calculate):
(1) Male- Frequent/Infrequent-separate means
(2) Female- Frequent/Infrequent- separate means
[If your group consists of members of the same sex, then use ages to separate the groups: For instance, “under-30, over-30, etc.”]
c) Part V– Compile the team’s final results into a study (750-1,000 words) detailing the steps of the assignment. Include in your study:
i) Introduction- Briefly explain the reason for the study. Include the hypothesis and how it was tested. ii) Method- briefly explain how the experiment was
