To compare the effect of stress caused by noise on the ability to perform a simple task, 72 subjects were divided into two groups—31 subjects as a control group, and 41 subjects as the experimental group. Although each subject performed the task, the experimental group had to perform the task while loud rock music was played. The time to finish the task was recorded for each subject and the following summary was obtained. Control Experimental n 31 41 x 19...

2. An experiment about a person’s ability to perform some task before and after taking one of the two drugs was conducted. The subjects performed the task that involved mental addition. The subjects were randomly divided into two groups. Each group drank a beverage containing one of two drugs, labeled A, B (placebo). After a period of time for the drugs to take effect, each subject repeated the mental addition test. We want to relate the after test score to...

9. Eight subjects were asked to perform a simple puzzle assembly task under customary conditions and under conditions of stress. During the stressful condition, the subjects were told a mild shock would be delivered 3 minutes after the start of the experiment and every 30 seconds or so thereafter until the task was completed. Blood pressure readings were taken under both conditions. The data in the table represent the highest reading during the experiment. Let mp denote the median difference...

Dr. Philip Lieberman, a neuroscientist at Brown University, conducted a field experiment to gauge the effect of high altitude on a person's ability to think critically. The subjects of the experiment were five males who took part in an American expedition climbing Mount Everest. At the base camp, Lieberman read sentences to the climbers while they looked at simple pictures in a book. The length of time (in seconds) it took for each climber to match the picture with a...

For example, if participants believe they are in a study to test if coffee improves your mood, those who drank coffee might claim to be happier than they really are. Based on the information given, which of the following experiments is most likely to have the issue of a control or...

Select the studies below that use a matched pairs experimental design. To determine the effect of wearing a helmet in a motorcycle accident, recent accident reports are collected. The reports are divided into two groups, those who were wearing a helmet at the time of the accident and those were were not. The difference of the mean severity for the two groups is computed. Participants in a study to determine the effects of a new weight-loss medication are divided into...
