In this unit, you will create a hypothesis the topic below. Please see the Research Rubric for specific details required for your submission:

Topic:The effect of heat on aggression

As a class, we will build upon the topic throughout the Mod. For example, this unit (Unit 2) you will create a hypothesis, IV, and DV based on the above topic. Your grade and feedback will be based on how well you do so. When we discuss sampling in Unit 3, you will be provided with a new, related hypothesis, IV, and DV, and will be asked to create a sample based upon them. Thus, we will explore - and have you identify - a new component for each unit until we have every component necessary for a research paper.

Operationalized IV:Temperature Operationalized DV: Number of punches

Procedure:Participants met separately with the experimenter a quiet room during the summer. They sat at a desk in a cushioned chair with the room at one of two temperatures: hot (about 90 degrees) or cold (about 65 degrees), depending on their condition. In the center of the room was a blow-up doll that would bounce back to the normal condition when punched. The Informed Consent Form was signed first, which indicated that the current study was about aggression. Next, participants were asked to punch the doll as much as they would like for 30 seconds. The number of punches was recorded by the experimenter. After the 30 seconds, participants were thanked and debriefed.

Design:a) experimental, b) between-subjects, c) single blind

In the following imaginary study (data link below), participants who had trouble dieting were put into three conditions: 1) Scared Straight - they are yelled at and shown overweight people to scare them into dieting, 2) Motivational Interviewing - they are asked to think about how life would be better if they dieted and how life would be worse if they did not, and 3) No intervention. After the intervention (or no intervention) took place, participants were asked to report how much they ate the following week. The goal of the study is to see which intervention will reduce eating the most. Weight was also measured to see if there was any relationship between the weight of the participants and their performance in the week from the intervention.

Please produce the statistical analysis for a t-test (Compare the Scared Straight and No Intervention Groups), ANOVA (Compare the Scared Straight, Motivational Interviewing, and No Intervention Groups, and correlation (see if there is a relationship between weight and any of the 3 conditions: weak, moderate, or strong, and positive or negative - and what that means) using the given data. Please report all of the results (both the output and your interpretation) and include all other previously already established components).
