Bell test experiments

One of my favorite memories of my undergrad research methods class was our Professor asking the class to come up with an experiment that a political scientists could conduct like a biology scientist. My suggestion was to put two politicians in a test tube and observe the reactions. Another student suggested taking 10 infants from their parents at birth, raising them in the same environment, then allowing 5 to go to college and 5 to only finish high school and see what who they vote for in an…

The Purpose of Mendeleev’s lab was to try to understand and identify the 9 unknown elements that were given. We had to relate it to Mendeleev’s lab of 1869, using his perspective and his methods. For example , he did things like laying out the elements from lightest to heaviest and by the colors. By studying its physical properties and observing the examples given we could identify the elements that were given. Using his methods really helped me understand his point of view, he used the…

capacities. They have their own capacities, their own spectrum of aptitudes and behavior” When scientist do experiments on animals, animals may not live as long because they’re having stuff put into their bodies that aren’t healthy for them. Animals could probably catch diseases from the experiments and this could kill them. Animals make people so happy in life. Animals are even used to test products such as certain foods,medication and sometimes they’re used to find cures. Animal testing…

Some countries test more animals than others due to the amount of drug or product that they have. The economist says that, “Britain conducts a surprising number of experiments on animals: some 3m a year. America appears to use fewer animals—just 1.1m a year, according to official statistics” not including mice or rats. The U.S does use less animals but they don’t count mice and rats as animals because there is an abundance of them. Britain is smaller than the U.S and tests on possibly more…

In this experiment the students were required to provide urine samples three times in 60 minutes. This experiment was done to test urine volume, flow rate, total dissolved solids, and pH at each interval and record the differences in these variables depending on what each participant was asked to eat or drink. I hypothesized that the subjects asked to eat pretzels and drink soda would see an increase in total dissolved solids in their urine. In this experiment the 20 test subjects had to provide…

Conclusion The hypothesis for how 80’s music would make it harder for the participants to focus was accepted. The data used from the experiment that supports the hypothesis was the different genres of music that each participant listened to, one of the genres of music was 80’s music and the participants that listened to 80’s music had a harder time focusing on the worksheet and got more time for the trials with music than without music. I think the results came out the way they did is because…

The purpose of this experiment was to study how images interfere with the categorization of an animal as mammal or non-mammal. Eight individuals performed an animal Stroop task where they were asked to identify the animal named as mammal or non-mammal. The interference condition was images of a different animal, and the neutral condition was images of nature. The goal was to label the animal listed in the word box that was in the middle of the image. After the experiment was performed, it was…

Single Case Design Overview Assignment Behavior Research Methods Montiel Cook Design Research Questions Addressed Advantages Disadvantages Demonstration of Experimental Control ABAB Does this intervention work? Will the independent variable alter the dependent variable? Threats to internal validity can be controlled by the researcher with return to baseline. A single participant can demonstrate experimental control within this design. Behaviors should of participant repertoire. Hard to…

What person could be so inhumane to be doing test on people, and treat people like laboratory animals? Why were medical experimentations done on humans in the first place? Strep throat and the flu are bad, but the man behind it all did so much worse, inflicting pain on people and getting a kick out of it, how messed up does a person have to be to do such a thing? Medical experimentations done on prisoners, a series of inhumane tests, to increase the German population, and Josef Mengele the man…

“It is the weight, not numbers of experiments that is to be regarded”1. As Sir Isaac Newton, one of the most influential scientists in history, states – the design of an experiment is very important. Therefore, aspiring scientists must learn about many different types of techniques and its applications. Over the past six weeks, students were exposed to six experts discussing different fields of research but their studies contained many overlapping qualities. Some common topics discussed were…
