No new reading -- apply this week's experimental-design ideas to a new scenario.
- 1.A student wants to test whether music tempo affects how fast people solve puzzles. Name the independent variable and the dependent variable.
- 2.Name two variables that should be held constant in that experiment.
- 3.What would serve as a sensible control group in that experiment?
- 4.Why does running multiple replicates (repeated trials per condition) make an experiment's conclusion more trustworthy?
