flows.” (Klazema). If we are sensitive to shots, who says they are not? These products are still being developed and if the product happens to be dangerous, the animals will be the first to tell. They are put through all the pain of the failed experiments. The intentions of animal testing is not to harm the animals, but that is exactly what it does…

Many of the experiments that established the foundation of psychology have been found to contain weak inductive inferences that do not represent humanity as a whole. Along with these founding experiments, many recent experiments continue to contain weak inductive inferences as well. This is not an effective way to continue to develop the foundation of psychology. I will argue that the recent experimental work of Audrey Parrish is invalid because of its weak inductive inferences. An inductive…

The Effects of Recall and Recognition in Different Experiments The purpose of this study was to determine recall and recognition amongst different types of people. The differentiation between these people included age, gender, timing, and many other characteristics that may or may not affect the memory of a person or persons. Recall is simply defined as bringing a thought or idea that has been learned previously back to the remembrance of a person. Recognition is being able to recognize what…

Aim: The BBC prison experiment was a study that tested the psychological effect of people being placed in an environment where there was inequality in terms of power, status and resources. As stated by Haslam and Reicher, they “were trying to investigate the factors (e.g., social identification, permeability, cognitive alternatives) that determine when people act as group members and how they respond to an unequal social system.” (Haslam and Reicher, 2008). Method: Fifteen men were chosen to…

the issue is complicated.”(Judson, 12) An issue that is difficult to keep in conversation because it deals with politics and stirs up press. Complicated experiments are a way to say that animals that your children see in Zoos and love very much are being tested on to find the greatest impact a child can take when hitting some object. Experiments that are performed on these animals are too harsh for any living creature to bare through. Monkeys are strapped into helmets and bash in the head to…

the weaknesses of Reicher and Haslam’s experiment and whether the strengths outweigh the weaknesses. Indeed, both researchers came together to understand how individuals can accept, in a group environment, behaviours that are tyrannical whether the individual is the one who inflicts it or undergoes it (Reicher & Haslam, 2006). This experiment, base its research on Zimbardo’s prison experiment. However, it is not a replicate of The Stanford prison experiment (SPE) for different matters. Firstly,…

Both experiments followed pretty much the exact same guidelines as our experiment will: no technology usage for a specific amount of time, if you can’t do so, you fail the challenge. From the results of people doing these challenges we were already able to see the pros and cons of the disconnect…

Freedman, 1966). In this second experiment, a different person ( not the original requester), without knowledge of the outcome of the first experiment, initiated the second inquiry (Jonathan L. Freedman, 1966). The small request asked of the subjects to sign a petition for either safe driving or in keeping California beautiful. The bigger request…

Introduction Rakoczy, Ehrling, Harris, and Schultze 's experiments wanted to evaluate how young children accept advice on topics they have no knowledge in; while how adults make judgements has been well-studied, the way children make judgements has not (Rakoczy et al., 2015, p.71-73). Through these experiments, Rakoczy et al. (2015) wanted to determine whether children actively sought advice from better informed, as adults would; additionally, they wanted to see whether or not children were…

multiple challenging contexts with different incentive values. Researchers also want to know if the incentive value of goals can play an important role in influencing the behavioral regulation of 109 exuberant pre-schoolers in China. Through several experiments they found that exuberant children tend to be more persistent on a goal-blocked task. This result stimulated researcher’s curiosity that why exuberant children is so well regulated under goals with high incentive values? 3. Hypothesis…
