Analyzing an experiment

A researcher was interested in the effects of alcohol on perceptions of physical attractiveness of the opposite sex. To study this, he used students from two of his classes, a senior seminar for psychology majors that met one evening a week from 6 to 9 p.m., and a first-year introductory psychology class that met two mornings a week at 10 a.m. Because the seniors were all at least 21 and, thus, legally able to drink, he assigned them all to the condition that received 2 oz. of alcohol mixed in with 6 oz. of orange juice. The first-year students were assigned to the “placebo” alcohol condition, in which they received 2 oz. of tonic water (which tastes like alcohol) mixed in 6 oz. of orange juice. These students believed that they were really being served alcohol as part of the psychological study.

Students were invited to participate in the study if they had a free hour after their class with the professor. The professor conducted the study on a Thursday, on a day when the introductory class had had an exam. Students drank either the alcohol or the placebo drink, waited 30 minutes in a lounge for the “alcohol” to take effect, and then sat at a computer and performed a five- minute task in which they rated various faces of the opposite sex on physical attractiveness.

The group that had received alcohol rated the faces as more attractive than the group that did not receive alcohol, and the professor concluded that alcohol makes people of the opposite sex appear more attractive.

Is the professor’s conclusion a reasonable one? Discuss the elements of the study design to support your answer (e.g., refer to the weaknesses of the experiment that make the results less convincing). If you find the conclusion unreasonable, then design a proper experiment to test the professor’s hypothesis.

What pathway does spoken language comprehension take in the brain? Describe and discuss the role of the most important areas in this network with reference to research findings.

Describe the major concepts (ex. What is aggressive behavior, depression etc.) and mention some general knowledge supported by research.

/in /by

1)Introduce the topic of the paper: describe the major concepts (ex. What is aggressive behavior, depression etc.) and mention some general knowledge supported by research.
2)Propose a thesis (i.e. Viewing violent media causes aggressive behavior) and state how you will attempt to validate it (i.e. This paper attempts to validate this claim by summarizing research related to violent TV and violent video games).
3)Literature Review: Summarize research related to the topic: What have others written about the topic in scientific journals, books, websites, etc.? You should attempt to validate your thesis with the research you summarize. This is the major portion of your paper and should contain several paragraphs totaling about 2 pages.
4)Conclusion: (A) Restate your thesis, and (B) briefly summarize why it is supported (mention the main points). NO NEED REFERENCE PAGE.THANKS
