kekekekeke~ i have finally decided.....on the "determe if motion, associated with roller coaster riding, and emotion, such as anxiety and stress, affect short-term memory" experiment.
this would be interestinggg ~hmm... i still need to determine the amount of people i need for this...and the venue...since im going overseas soon, and its cheaper there, i should get like my extended family and cousins to do this ~~ohohohohohohoho
okaayy so independent variable- selection of words/numbers/picture (still deciding) remains constant
dependent variable- the amount of correct answers each person will remember
hypothesis(do i need this?!)- the participants' average scores would likely be negatively impacted by the motion and emotion associated
with the roller coaster.
each participant will need to take the test beforehand though...to be able to compare with the results after the ride,,so im thinking about 20-40 people? or is that too much?
things i need for the experiment -->stopwatches, recording sheet and a collection of the same material for the participants to memorise.
ahhhhhh this is gonna be fun~~~~~~keke
Ying, none of your experimenets can actually be done. Not only have you actually done any research into what you are planning to experiment, but you have not actually considered the aspects of how you're planning to trial this FAIRLY.
回复删除I have mentioned time and again that to do a human based experiment, you will need AT LEAST 30 people. How are you going to measure their reactions on a rollercoaster accurately?
