Attitudes toward cheating behavior in college students Academic success is determined by many factors; effort, ability, and time to name a few. But one factor, one that not many consider, can drastically change the outcome of an individual’s success. Cheating persists throughout all levels of education, whether administrators want to admit it or not. The problem with cheating is that it commonly goes unnoticed, and there are many factors that influence the probability of this occurring. One of…
METHODS Experimental Approach to the Problem This study was aimed to statistically analyze multiple 1RM strength qualities of Division-I offensive and defensive American Football linemen. The 1RM strength tests for the back squat and power clean, and vertical jump test will be analyzed in relation to the linear twenty-yard sprint time of Division-I American football offensive and defensive line athletes. The 1RM squat was used for absolute strength testing, as it is the suggested and widely…
In this extension experiment there were a few errors that occurred in some of the trials. This is to be expected as perfect sterile techniques are unable to be achieved in the conditions provided. This is also why it was chosen to do three trials of each antiseptic so when errors do occur they can be easily recognised as anomalies. In the Domestos trials the main error was in the second plate where no results could be found for any of the four sections. As can be seen in the photo a small…
CRASH TEST Aim The aim of this experiment was to perform a crash test and analyze the damage done to a dummy, when wearing and not wearing a seatbelt. Introduction Controls and Variables While performing this experiment there was one clear independent variable, which was the seat belt, as it was the only thing that changed during the experiment. As to have a fair test, that dummy had to be tested with both the seat belt on and off. The dependent and independent variables are the same thing…
between the source and the detector. Hypothesis: If the distance between a light source and a light meter increases, then the amount of Lux recorded on the light meter will decrease. Materials: • Light box kit • Power supply • Meter ruler • Light meter Method: 1. Set up and connect the light box to the power supply, with the power supply set to 8 volts 2. Make marks on the table at 10cm intervals 3. Turn the light box and light meter on and turn off all other lights in the room 4. Place light…
2015). Since metabolism is a key in sustaining the organisms’ life, we decided to investigate the experiment about metabolic rate caterpillar, Manduca sexta. There are many techniques used to measuring the metabolic rate, but there are only best method that can be done in laboratory: “quantification of heat production and quantification of gas consumption” (Perkin, 2015).Our investigation is about measuring the oxygen consumption of the caterpillar in the trial duration when it was placed in…
put in horsepower is very low according to my opinion,an expectation higher than that was made before calculation. The light bulb can be illuminated is about 60-70 watts. Conclusion: This experiment provides an experience on how to apply stresses test in real-world problems. For solving a problem economically, multiple factors should be considered, for example, the crank set’s power efficiency, maximum possible normal and shears stress; weight should be tested for manufacturing. Before…
To increase the concentration of the substrate, leave the concentration of enzyme constant and add more volume of substrate in different tubes and then test of the absorbance values. Then using the standard curve, convert the absorbance values to concentrations and then plot them to look for a trend of increase. For example, set different increasing amount of substrates like Tube 1 would have 0.5mL, Tube…
. The purpose of this experiment was to examine the role of attention in the performance of a new motor skill (cup stacking), to determine whether the level of attentional focus on the task impacted performance of the skill. The cup stacking experiment was performed under three different conditions; focused attention, response dual task, and cognitive dual task. Condition one was performed by solely focusing on completion of the task, while condition two, required the participant to respond to…
Bullying has been an issue that many students have encountered around the world. Institutions and educators have spent countless amount of funds and research on bullying prevention. The experimental proposal will focus on the question “Are bullying prevention programs actually prevent bullying? Hypothesizing that generally, bullying prevention programs decrease the rate of victimization slightly while increasing awareness. While not all bullying programs prevent bullying some increase bullying…
