AbstractThere were flaws in the experiment. With the measuring cups it was difficult to tell whether or not the estimation was correct. If the experiment were to be done again‚ it would have ice in the measuring cups to see how the cold would make any changes in the evaporation. The experiment was done because evaporation is something that is interesting to see what happens after the experiment is over. The experiment was done by making the water have different additives in it and seeing which one

In my experiment‚ I investigated the question “How does the amount of solute affect the time it takes for the solute to dissolve?” I thought about this question for a very long time and come up with a hypothesis for the investigation was “If the amount of solute increases‚ then the time for the solute to dissolve will increase. This is because the solute will become more concentrated and it won’t disolve into the solvent as fast. (Sadner‚ 2008)” Looking at the data I collected‚ I think that this

It follows that charitable companies should offer a few thank you gifts to increase donations right? Wrong. According to a recent study by George Newman and Jeremy Shen‚ thank you gifts actually decrease charitable donations. Six separate experiments were utilized within this study to explain the counterintuitive phenomenon. Their findings offer support for the motivational crowding theory‚ in which extrinsic motivators such as gifts undermine intrinsic motivation. Shen and Newman initially

Experimental Design The researchers utilized two different experiments with multiple parts in order to obtain the data needed to provide conclusive results. The first part involved a lottery from 10 different choices. Participants would choose between option A and option B for 10 different times‚ which would represent

in order to prove the effect of the test variable by comparing conditioned and unconditioned groups. A conditioned group is a group who receives the independent variable. An unconditioned group does not receive the independent variable. In this experiment we are testing the effects of cell phone usage on driving skills. In this case‚ the control group gives us an example of what happens when drivers are focusing on the road. The results from the control group will show us what happens when the driver

accurate because: The scientist gathers the information he/she observed using all senses‚ while conducting an experiment‚ by analyzing the industrial pond to ponds located farther away. Therefore‚ in order to present evidence of a study‚ a visual and tested observation is required for factual documentation from the person/s in any field of study‚ presenting evidence to support an experiment/test. 2) The "Examples of Tasks" I selected for the Scientific Method Step: "Ask a question" is accurate

The 30 participants of the experiment were assigned to sets 1(a condition wherein congruent color names and ink color were presented first before the incongruent set of words‚ and 2 (reverse of set 1) by random selection. Participants were called in the laboratory two at a time‚ one of them from set 1 participants and the other from set 2 group‚ and afterwards the test for the two conditions of the experiment were carried out at the same time.
