Factorial experiment

questions” (Primo Levi). There are common people every day who experiment; however, experiments turn evil when they prove genocidal to races. Throughout history, there have been events which most would like to change or forget; likewise, there are events which are repeated, even though the event could be catastrophic in proportions, such as the scientific “experiments” conducted by the Nazi Germany’s Holocaust and The United States’ experiments after 1940. Though the countries are different,…

In 1963, an experiment was conducted by Yale psychologist Stanley Milgram, who studied the conflict with obedience, authority, and the conscience of a human being. In the experiment, Milgram designed a false scenario, in which one person would volunteer to be the “teacher” and the other person would be the “student” (who would be the actor). The teacher would read a list of word pairs and test the student’s memory. Afterwards, the teacher would say the first word of the word pair and the student…

determine whether there may be social functions to behavior, often referred to as self-stimulatory, that had commonly been assumed to serve sensory functions. All experiments were conducted with the child and the experimenter in a room next to the child’s classroom. Data was taken by two assistants behind a one-way mirror. In the first experiment, there were three conditions: 1. a baseline condition in which the children did five minutes each of a match-to-sample task and a receptive-labeling…

depraved experiments by developing and testing pharmaceuticals and treatment methods for injuries and illnesses. Many of the people he performed experiments on were Jews and twins. Most of them were tested against their will. He and other doctors performed many experiments, such as the malaria experiments, mustard gas experiments, pharmaceutical testing, spotted fever (typhus) experiments, sulfanilamide experiments, and experiments with poisons. When Mengele performed the malaria experiments, he…

all of his experiments viewing each one and figuring out what going on. As we go back to the point on how Skinner was a person that not only saw evil he was viewed as someone who did not care for others. He was a person who sat down and just ruined lots of things. There was evidence to prove otherwise. Just like there was no evidence to prove that he was a bad man. He was not only helping more than just himself throughout the years he was helping the entire country with some of experiments. As…

least preferred but immediate reward in order to receive a later but larger reward (Mischel, Ebbesen, & Zeiss, 1972). Mischel, Ebbesen, and Zeiss (1972) held a series of experiments at Stanford University to of study the role of attentional and cognitive mechanisms in delay of gratification (Mischel et al., 1972). The experiment investigated the effects of attention to the goal objects and was measure by the amount of time that the participants waited. To investigate the role of attention and…

not have been further from the truth. Twenty-five of the 40 men continued the experiment to the very end, even after listening to the learner’s shouts of protest, agonized screaming, and, ultimately, ominous silence…

performed scientific experiments on children, women, men, and people of all races like African-Americans and Jews. As experiments became a frowned upon subject, scientists and researchers covered up their inhumane experiments by deceiving innocent people, which also dealt and…

during the chemical process. For something trivial as in trying to remove a birthmark, it can unexpectedly create advancements in science. Aylmer’s experiment does go too far with the scientific boundaries, but he creates an opportunity to learn from mistakes made in his experiments. Aylmer’s experiments can be justified if his wife survived the experiment. To paraphrase Aylmer’s actions throughout the story, he detects “a healthy delicate bloom… a tint of deeper crimson,…

This is a between subjects experiment because the participants were different in each condition. For the procedure in each experiment, there were three phases. The experiment began with the study phase. The study phase started by the children being told that they are going to be told something about a boy/girl or about boys/girls. But in the second experiment they would say a cat/dog or cats/dogs or in the third they would say the eight different…
