significant difference in their attitude towards research. However, there are limitations on this study. The sample size used was small, and when gathering the second part of the ATR scale data some students did not attend. Additionally, this study also included participants that left out some questions on the ATR scale questionnaire. This may have impacted the fining of the study and over represented sentence sub-question on the questionnaire. The study conducted by Shaukat, et al (2014)…

To find out the spiciness of a pepper the Scoville scale is the most commonly used system for measuring pungency. The original Scoville scale was invented by Wilbur Scoville. During his experiment, five people ate a spicy pepper. Afterwards, they each drank water with dissolved sugar. When enough sugar was added so that the spiciness could not be tasted, that amount of sugar was recorded and the system was converted into a scale. There are more efficient ways to determine the amount…
