Investigate effect of time spent studying on a recall task
Your lab group has been assigned the task of designing an experiment to investigate the effect of time spent studying on a recall task.
Thus far, your group has come up with the following plan: “Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups. Individuals in one group will study a list of 5 words for 5 minutes, and those in the other group will study the same list for 7 minutes.
Immediately after studying, the participants will read a list of 10 words and circle those that appeared on the original study list.” Improve this experiment, giving specific reasons for any changes.
