Are you looking for a fun experiment that you can perform for a psychology class? This experiment on gender and memory is relatively quick and easy to perform‚ which is a bonus if you are short on time and resources. Could gender differences play a role in short-term memory? We often hear women complain that their husbands can’t remember important dates like anniversaries or birthdays‚ but could this phenomenon be due to something like memory differences between men and women. Some previous research

float. Any object with density more than that will sink. Carbon dioxide‚ or CO2‚ also played a big role in this experiment. Many soft drinks contain CO2. Studies show that Sierra Mist had the most carbonation out of most soft drinks. There was a lot of carbon dioxide in the soda. That was the reason the raisins would float up and down. There were many purposes to this experiment. One purpose was to teach us about density when we saw how the raisins floated to

The aim of the experiment was to examine the effects of consuming lactate before and during a prolonged exercise. The data shows that the consumption of the lactate actually did work and the performance of the subject was better than the previous three experiments of dieting. This was due to the lactate that was consumed in the CytoMax. Azevedo‚ Tietz‚ Two-Feathers‚ Paull‚ and Chapman (2007) state that CytoMax contains polylactate which speeds up the delivery of substrates and is thought to help

were derived from his experiments‚ proved that obedience is one of the basic elements in the structure of social life. The proximately of the victim‚ responsibility for the actions‚ and perceived legitimate authority figures will greatly determine how far an individual will go to fully comply. Obedience‚ which is one of many social influences in our life’s‚ results in a change in behavior when a direct command is given by a high authority.

To confirm this assumption‚ the experimenter‚ Victor Seo has developed an experiment to prove the hypothesis: “people who consume lots of chocolate will produce more acne than people eat less chocolate. 400 students of teenagers with grades ranging from 9 to 11 will be examined divided into four groups each consuming 1 bar‚ 3 bars‚ 6 bars‚ or 10 bars daily.

Part I - Illumination Experiments (1924-27) These experiments were performed to find out the effect of different levels of illumination (lighting) on productivity of labour. The brightness of the light was increased and decreased to find out the effect on the productivity of the test group. Surprisingly‚ the productivity increased even when the level of illumination was decreased. It was concluded that factors other than light were also important.

Parachute experiment Aim: The aim was to find the effect of holes on a parachute‚ varying their size and number. Hypothesis: 1. By increasing the number of holes‚ the time it will take to the parachute to reach the ground will be longer and its flight will be more balanced. 2. By increasing the size of the hole on the parachute‚ the time it will take to the parachute to reach the ground will be shorter and its flight will be less balanced.
