Abstract This experiment was designed to test whether priming participants through testing can lead to overconfidence on further testing when the information changes. 36 Participants were selected from the ------- to participate in this experiment. The participants were given reading comprehension tests that were amended from Pearson-Longman Education testing materials. 18 participants were given Test 1 followed by a Control Test‚ and 18 participants were given Test 1 followed by an Experiment Test.

Introduction The experiment was all based off of the question does the amount of candles affect how high the water rises? The hypothesis was also tested by the experiment‚ and this was the hypothesis‚ the amount of candles affects the height of the water. This hypothesis was chosen because it was known that the more candles lit in the container it used more oxygen and without the oxygen the contained created a vacuum that brings up the water‚ and that the more candles the stronger the vacuum.

diffusion. The water in each experiment measured 13 cm from the bottom of the glass to the top. The tap water for each experiment was taken from a jug so the temperature would be consistent. Before the food coloring was added the water in the glass was allowed to settle to decrease any movement. In the first experiment it took 61 seconds for the drop of food coloring to reach the bottom of the glass‚ in the second experiment it took 51 seconds and in the third experiment it took 32 seconds.

This section covers the following topics Requirements for a good experiment/study The types of research Statistical methods for combining research Section Summary Research forms the foundation of psychology; much of what we know about psychology today is because of research. There are specific requirements for research. A study or experiment must be both reliable and valid‚ and the procedure should be ethical according to the American Psychology Association’s standards.

Social Psychology Experiment Replication (Group Project) An experimental Study of The Door in the Face Technique Date: 28/4/2009 ABSTRACT Door in the face technique is a persuasion method in which a requester first asked an extreme request (which was refused) and then a smaller request. Our experiment was conducted to test the effectiveness of door in the face technique for inducing compliance with different strategies when giving requests. Hong Kong Community College

The Betta Fish Behavior and Effects Abstract The reason for this experiment was to test the agonistic behavior in the male Betta fish. The experiment was conducted by making puppets and showing a mirror image to the the fish; then we could record how fish responded to the stimuli. The hypothesis was supported by the experiment‚ and our group concluded that a fish feels his zone is being invaded when being tailed around by a mirror model puppet.

put 10 Pill Bugs in the opening between the two circles‚ and timed them for one minute. This gave them time to choose dish 1 or dish 2. We then counted the number of Pill Bugs in each circle. We did this 3 times. This was the control group in the experiment. Then we changed the independent variable: the environment in each of the dishes. In dish 1‚ we took strips of paper and
