Solution

The correct statement is: "There are 2 IVs in this study. IV 1 is 'volume' and it is a between subjects variable; IV 2 is 'speed' and it is a within subjects variable."

Explanation:

In this study, the independent variables (IVs) are the factors that the researcher manipulates to see if they cause any change in the dependent variable. Here, the independent variables are 'volume' and 'speed'.

'Volume' is a between-subjects variable because it varies between the two groups of participants (one group listens to soft music and the other to loud music).

'Speed' is a within-subjects variable because it varies within each participant (each participant listens to slow, medium, and fast music).

'Music enjoyment' is not an independent variable; it is the dependent variable because it is the outcome that the researcher is measuring (how much participants enjoy the music).

We wish to test the hypothesis that music improves leaning. We compare test scores of students who study to music with those who study in silence. Which of the following is an extraneous variable in the experiment? A. the amount of time allowed for the studying B.

A study was conducted to explore the possibility of a music treatment effect on someone's ability to estimate time. One version of the study involved 115 university students. Each student was led into a dark room, and asked to press a button exactly three minutes after a signal was given. The time that actually passed from the signal to the pushing of the button was recorded in minutes. The university students were allocated to one of the two groups based on their weight. One group listened to jazz music during the study, while the other group did not. The researchers found a difference of 0.18 minutes between the mean of the times recorded for each group, with the group that listened to jazz music having the higher mean. The tail proportion from a randomisation test carried out with the data from the study was 115/1000. Use the information above to answer the following questions.
