Left Visual Field Experiment

After doing this experiment it was noted that the dependant variables were very similar on each right and left side of the visual field. The results of the first dependent variable (response time) shows that the participant was able to make a guess on each word in the visual field (independent variable) within 1.556 seconds. The dependant variables in the left visual field are marginally better than that in the right visual field. Responses to larger words in both visual fields appeared to take longer to guess and respond to correctly or not, than those with less letters.

The response speed is on the Y axis. My data are showing that the right visual field has a longer mean response speed of 1.22275 seconds while the left visual field response speed was quicker (on average) by 0.09026 seconds, giving the left visual field a response speed of 1.1325 seconds.
My practitioners left visual field has a range of 0.085 seconds, with the slowest speed of 1.175 and a quickest of 1.090. The right visual field has a range of 0.647 seconds with the slowest speed of 1.556 and a fastest of 0.909 seconds.
The second lot of data I collected uses the same key to show the difference in results of a group mean response provided to me. As opposed to my practitioner the data is showing that right visual field had a quicker mean response speed to both my practitioner and the left visual side of the group with a speed of 0.786 seconds compared to the left visual field that had a mean response speed of 0.819 seconds and my practitioners mean speed of 1.223

    Troy Marketplace Observation

    While on patrol, I was dispatched to Troy Market Place in reference to a intoxcated male attempting to get into an 18 wheeler and leave. Upon arrival, I observed a white male in the driver seat for the rig, while it was running. Once I started exiting my patrol vehicle, the white male jumped out the driver seat and went towards the back of the rig. I then knocked on the driver door and directed the driver to step down from the vehicle. I then advised the driver why officers were there.…

    Problem Set 7.1 a) Null Hypothesis: Within the 95% confidence interval there is no significant difference between the two-point threshold test disdances among the different areas. Alternate Hypothesis: Within the 95% confidence interval there is a significant difference between the two-point threshold test disdances among the different areas. b) The null hypothesis should be rejected because the p-value is 0 which is lower than 0.05, also because the conifence intervals for the back of the hand and the fingertip does not overlap to be statistically equal. c)…

    Over the course of the roller coaster height lab My group and I had to answer the question “ does the height of the ramp affect the speed of the marble”. We answered that yes the height of the ramp will make the speed of the marble increase. Our hypothesis was wrong, but, My group and I have discovered that the height of the ramp will not affect the speed of the marble. We also Discovered something new which was that the speed increased and decreased abnormally as we went along in the lab.…

    They modified it so they could manipulate the categories of distractors while still controlling bottom-up factors (Avital-Cohen & Tsal, 2016). The independent variable in their experiment is the type of distractors, meaning whether they are incongruent or congruent. Another independent variable is the letter or word condition. The dependent variable is the reaction time. They chose S or O for target letters and set two conditions.…

    Visual Acuity

    Change in Visual Acuity with Eccentricity Humans have a large vison field so it is important to not only test the central vison but also at the peripherals of the retina. This is because individuals tend to not notice vison loss at the peripherals compared to central vision as when an individual views an object they move their eyes and fixate on that object by using their central vison and not their peripheral. Visual acuity is highest at the fovea and lowest at the peripheral which ensures high visual acuity at fixation. A way to measure peripheral vision is the Humphrey perimetry test which assesses the vision field. Any reduction in peripheral vision can indicate the development of disease such as glaucoma or detect any blind spots, scotomas…

    The Stroop Effect And Reaction Time

    Studies done by Stroop (1992) and Windes (1968) suggest that the Stroop effect occurs when performing a naming task which impacts reaction times. In the Stroop (1992) study found that color naming had a slower reaction time when the color words were printed in a different color, but even slower reaction time occurred when the color and word were completely separate from one another. The current experiment used Stroop task to determine the impacts of reaction times to test the hypothesis to see if there is a significant difference between the reaction times amongst the four levels of the Stroop task. Specifically seeing if the naming of color words printed in the same color had faster reaction times than naming the color of word printed in different…

    Pedestrian's Horizontal Peripheral Vision

    Greetings, Group; Does anyone know of documented information on how much of a typical pedestrian's horizontal peripheral vision is used while walking? I seem to recall, but cannot remember from where ( - probably one of those bio classes I had to take way back in college), that typically, a person is most aware of events within the Near Peripheral area - 35 degrees of ones forward line of sight, or put otherwise - a lateral arc of 70 degrees with the forward line of sight at the center of the arc. Likewise, I have heard that for an unaware, non-vigilant, or distracted person will usually be unaware of events within their Far Peripheral areas (60 degrees from line of sight, to the outer edge of perception), and often unaware…

    At Atlantis Vision Center in Indian Harbour Beach, FL, we often get common, yet important, eye care questions. One such inquiry is the meaning behind the term “20/20 vision.” This term expresses normal visual acuity (in other words, the sharpness, or clarity, of vision) measured at a distance of 20 feet. People with 20/20 vision can clearly see the objects that should normally be seen at 20 feet.…

    Colliform Growth Data Analysis

    As students spent some decent amount of time in the experiment, they will come up with some data and the final step for students is to record their data and compare their data with other groups. The following graph chart is based on the data that are provide from four different groups in the class: This diagram shows the coliform growth data from four different groups. According to the data, we can easily calculate that the mean value of coliform growth in Ottawa river is 346.50, the standard deviation is 62.34 and the standard error is 31.17. The mean value, standard deviation, and the standard error for tap water is all zero since there is not coliform growth in the tap water.…
