    Does anyone know how to properly report chi-square in the paper? I’m having a little difficulty with that so if you do SOS!

    An experimental design enables the researchers to test their hypothesis by reaching valid conclusions about relationships between independent and dependent variables. This is done by deliberately changing one or […]

    Hey Peter,

    I agree with you on your opinion that this condition may be uncomfortable but Dr. P seems to make the best out of it and it does not appear to affect him greatly which I think is very important.

    After reading “The Man Who Mistook His Wife” I kept questioning myself as to how, or why this would be happening to Dr. P since the case was so unique. Dr. P was able to identify minor details of simple objects […]

    My first hypothesis states that participants will exhibit longer response times while reciting the hard version of the Stroop test. My second hypothesis predicts that the participants will exhibit a longer […]

    One of my hypotheses for this paper is that those who scored high on neuroticism will also suffer from academic anxiety. The reason I came up with this hypothesis is because it has been shown that those who have […]

    I found the example that you gave interesting especially because it somewhat has to do with what our second paper is about. I also like how you stated that by using the same participants the researchers do not […]

    There are many advantages in using advantages a within-subjects design as oppose to using between-subjects design. One of the many advantages may include that fewer participants are required, take less time, and […]

    Hi Simona,

    I agree with your suggestion to question #19. Maybe it is better to give multiple choice option for the GPA as opposed to leaving it as an open-ended answer. I also agree with defining what plan […]

    An assignment should be operationally defined as work related to school which includes homework, papers, quizzes, writing notes.

    Hey Jennie,

    I personally am a huge fan of abnormal psychology so the fact that you mentioned anxiety in squirrels got me quickly intrigued. I can see why you say that they might get anxiety. Squirrels might […]

    After observing the squirrels in Central Park I have come up with many possible hypotheses based on their behavior. Two that have stuck out to me the most are climbing and eating. My first hypothesis states that […]

    Hey Jimmy,

    This was not only interesting but eye-opening. Orcas are incredibly intelligent animals and us humans keep them captive and do not let them flourish out in the wild where they belong. It’s […]
