Executive summary Arazindi Fashion House (AFH), an Australian clothing store, initiated a promotional technique in which customers were issued with a card that entitled them to a 20% discount on any purchase they made during the month of June. The nationwide sales manager of AFH conducted a research that was mainly intended to establish the effectiveness of this promotional technique. Particularly, the research intended to establish whether or not the amount of sales was influenced by the use of promotional cards. A sample of 200 customers was used in the research. From this sample, techniques of data analysis such as correlation, use of descriptive statistics, and graphical methods were used to answer the questions posed by the research.

Chapter 1 Describe the hindsight bias and explain how it often leads us to perceive psychological research as merely common sense. Compare and contrast case studies, surveys, and naturalistic observation, and explain the importance of proper sampling. Explain why correlational research fails to provide evidence of cause-effect relationships. Identify the basic elements of an experiment, and discuss how experimental control contributes to causal explanation. Describe the three measures of central tendency and the two measures of variation. Explain why psychologists study animals, and discuss the ethics of experimentation with both animals and humans.
