Independent and Dependent Variables An independent variable is a factor that is manipulated in an experiment.? The experimenter controls whether or not subjects are exposed to the independent variable.?? The dependent variable is measured to determine if the manipulation of the independent variable had any effect.? For example,?? to test a hypothesis that eating carrots improves vision, the experimenter would manipulate whether or not subjects ate carrots.? Thus, eating carrots is the independent variable.? Each subject?s vision would be tested to see if carrot eating had any effect.? Thus, vision is the dependent variable.? The subjects assigned to eat carrots are in the experimental group, whereas subjects not eating carrots are in the control group. ?

?? Q 2 ? Stain the inner central pith sample in the same way. Draw a few of the cells that characterize what you see from each slide. Give a heading to each in the space below and label as many of the cell structures/organelles as you can find - can you see a nucleus? What might this indicate about the cell and gene expression, mRNA creation? Inner (green, stained) Outer (green, stained) ? 4) Complete steps 1-3 for the ripe and overripe banana samples. Draw your diagrams for each STAINED sample in the spaces below, BUT only do counts for ?outer cells.? ? Ripe Banana - With iodine stain INNER OUTER ? Overripe Banana - With iodine stain.

Psychology is empirical. Psychologists are committed to addressing questions about behavior through formal, systematic observation The scientific approach assumes that events are governed by some lawful order Psychologists and other scientists share three sets of interrelated goals: Measurement and description Understanding and prediction A hypothesis is a tentative statement about the relationship between two or more variables. Variables are any measurable conditions, events, characteristics, or behaviors that are controlled or observed in a study Application and control A theory is a system of interrelated ideas used to explain a set of observations. Allows to leap from description of behavior to understanding Must be testable Gradual construction

Analysis of variance

The Standard Deviation is a measure of how spread out numbers are. Its symbol is???(the greek letter sigma) The formula is easy: it is the?square root?of the?Variance Variance = The average of the?squared?differences from the Mean. To calculate the variance follow these steps: Work out the Mean (the simple average of the numbers) Then for each number: subtract the Mean and square the result (the squared difference). Then work out the average of those squared differences. (Why Square?)

The Need for Psychological Science Hindsight bias and judgmental overconfidence show that we cannot rely on intuition and common sense. Hindsight Bias: The thought that once a person finds out the outcome, that the person knew the outcome all along and could have predicted it. Overconfidence: Thinking is limited not only because of our after-the-fact common sense but by over confidence When you are 100% sure about something, self prediction may change up to 15% of the time When someone predicts wrong, they seem to use the ? I was close? excuse Skepticism and humility must be added to help us tell the difference between life and reality The Scientific Attitude You need to be Skeptical but not cynical Need to be able to have humility and be able to reject ones owns ideas

Research

Research the meaning of null hypothesis. Describe how and why it is used in experimental design. Properly cite your reference. In statistical inference of observed data of a scientific experiment, the null hypothesis refers to a general or default position: that there is no relationship between two measured phenomena,[1] or that a potential medical treatment has no effect.[2] Rejecting or disproving the null hypothesis ? and thus concluding that there are grounds for believing that there is a relationship between two phenomena or that a potential treatment has a measurable effect ? is a central task in the modern practice of science, and gives a precise sense in which a claim is capable of being proven false.
